As a follow up to last year’s “Joy Ride” New Belgium is launching a summer campaign called “Enjoy The Ride” Details from NB:
(FT. COLLINS, CO—30 May 2012) – New Belgium Brewing, maker of Fat Tire Amber Ale, is ready to embrace the summer season with this year’s "Enjoy the Ride" campaign.
As a follow-up to last year’s 20th Anniversary "Joy Ride" campaign where fans submitted their Fat Tire stories, this year’s Enjoy the Ride will share those stories on packaging, Point of Sale and online. From Memorial Day through Labor Day, friends of New Belgium will be able to Enjoy the Ride through bike giveaways, storytelling, socializing venues, social media and more.
The Enjoy the Ride campaign is a fusion of Fat Tire love, the enjoyment of life, passion for bikes and socializing with friends in person and through social media.
Throughout the campaign, New Belgium will give away a total of 2,500 coveted Fat Tire cruiser bikes. The bicycles will be awarded in New Belgium markets, on the New Belgium website and through social media. People can experience Enjoy the Ride on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, newbelgium.com; at Tour de Fat and Clips of Faith; and by following local Beer Rangers to learn about store giveaways and events.
On NewBelgium.com, you can visit the "Enjoy the Ride" page to discover a collection of fan-authored stories, photos, games and voicemails served up for enjoying and sharing. New Belgium will give away bikes to its most engaging friends and folks who create the coolest "beer-a-mid." Random drawings will also be announced weekly.
Twitter lovers are encouraged to construct a 140-character "Enjoy the Ride" story incorporating #enjoytheride. New Belgium will follow the conversation and judge the best follower-generated stories. Though Instagram, followers can share a picture and tag it with #enjoytheride.
New Belgium also has a growing market of free apps for both iPhones and Android phones. Look for the "Enjoy the Ride" app to upload Instagram photos, read and share stories and even win a bike.
New Belgium encourages everyone to join in the fun this summer; there are several ways to participate and Enjoy the Ride.
