Employee-owned New Belgium Brewing Company, which owns craft beer brand Fat Tire, is looking for a buyer that could the value the U.S. company at more than $1 billion (£671 million), according to people familiar with the matter.

Weren't they just voted one of best placed to work at in country?

A cool billion is tough to turn down.

If Ballast Point can sell for $1B, no reason why New Belgium can't.

I find it hard to believe, given this from just a couple months ago:

quote:

In a time when so many breweries have either sold or are shopping for buyers, being in a position to feel comfortable with our ownership and know that it won’t change hands anytime soon is a luxury.

Both of these decisions came naturally thanks to our Company Core Values and Beliefs (which include, among other things, having fun). They've steered us well for the last 24 year, and we're excited to let them guide us for the next 24, too.
