Is the looming climate apocalypse harshin’ your mellow? Reach for Fat Tire’s new brew of the future: Torched Earth.

The Colorado beer brand’s macabre new beverage is formulated to give imbibers a taste of what global warming is doing to our beer-making crops and other ingredients — and it’s really bad, according to Earther. Brewers took the three basics of beer — grain, water, yeast — and put them through what the “Nature for nerds” outlet describes as the “gauntlet of climate change.”

However, instead of typical craft brew components, particularly malted barley, Fat Tire’s brewers used hardier grains such as buckwheat and millet because they are known to survive extreme drought — which is sure to be seen globally in the coming decades. Smoked malt was also added to inspire the flavor of water that has been steeped with wildfire smoke.

“Unfortunately, I could’ve actually used wildfire water,” said Cody Reif, a lead brewer at New Belgium, Fat Tire’s parent brand.

“The Poudre River supplies water to our city and runs less than a quarter mile from the brewery and is filled with black water right now from the forest fires that devastated Northern Colorado last fall,” Reif told Earther. “This isn’t even the first time we’ve had our water supply threatened in the last 10 years.”

Reporter Brian Kahn, who tried Torched Earth firsthand, described it as “a turducken of ass flavors.” Kahn’s tasting notes also included “dirty” and “oily.”

New Belgium hoped the acrid ale — released, appropriately, on Earth Day — would impress upon consumers the need for companies to have and follow through on goals to combat climate change. For their part, Fat Tire is already the country’s first carbon-neutral beer and boasts plans to further reduce their emissions and resources used, according to their website.

Reif told Earther that Torched Earth is just a hint of what’s to come for beer lovers.

“The process of making it opened my eyes, and I’m absolutely positive we didn’t capture all the potential risks,” he said.
