- Balloon Boy21 mi
A homemade foil balloon released over Fort Collins while its owners claimed their six-year-old was inside.
- New Belgium23 mi
Started in a Fort Collins basement after a bicycle tour of Belgian monastery towns, which explains both the beer, Fat Tire amber, and the bike on the label.
The name comes from an old wagon track cut so straight across the prairie that people said it ran like a gunbarrel.
The reservoir was finished in February 1955 on ground bought from a dairy farm and filled that April.
