A favorite spot in Fort Collins, New Belgium Brewing Company is always a hit! Whether you decide to take the tour or simply sit down to enjoy a brewsky, New Belgium is a great place to visit. Inside there is full of character, including the display of carafes which are fun to photograph at large aperatures. I recently acquired a Zeiss 55mm f/1.8 lens which I used to take this photo. It’s a fabulous lens and if anyone has a Sony E Mount Camera, I highly recommend getting this lens!
