Clase Azul Tequila Blanco Ahumado is the newest addition to the brand's portfolio
Clase Azul

There are very few tequila brands with more eye-catching bottles than Clase Azul. The popular brand’s newest expression is no exception. It’s called Clase Azul Tequila Blanco Ahumado. It’s the latest addition to the portfolio, joining the brand’s five tequilas and three mezcals.
Clase Azul Tequila Blanco Ahumado

This artisanal tequila begins with Blue Weber agave hearts that are baked in a traditional oven made by digging a pit in the ground and lighting wood and volcanic rocks. After baking, the agave is shredded, and the juice is fermented and combined with the brand’s proprietary yeast. It’s then double-distilled in copper pot stills, resulting in a memorable tequila that will make you rethink the depths of flavor that blanco tequila can contain.

New Belgium partners with iconic Chicago wormwood liqueur brand on special beer
The Colorado brewery is daring you to try this six-pack
Voodoo Ranger Malort IPA.

New Belgium Brewery is calling it a dare. The brand has teamed up with Jeppson's Malört on a six-pack of beer that includes both a popular IPA beer and one made with the legendary Chicago-born liqueur. The Roulette IPA pack is officially out and it includes four Voodoo Ranger IPAs and two cans of the unique Malört-style IPA.
