New Belgium cuts 28 jobs as craft-beer sales growth slows industry-wide
Andy Cross, The Denver PostA tap room at New Belgium Brewery in Fort Collins, Colorado in 2016.New Belgium Brewing confirmed Monday that it laid off 28 employees, most of whom worked out of the beer maker’s Fort Collins headquarters.
The cuts, made Friday, were partly due to a rapid expansion to Asheville, N.C. in 2013. In a statement, the company said “We expanded our staff to support a brewery about 40 percent larger than New Belgium is today, and we haven’t yet achieved our goals in the face of changing dynamics in craft brewing.”
While the maker of the popular Fat Tire brand shipped more beer in 2017 than the previous year, growth in craft beer sales has slowed, causing New Belgium to rejigger its goals. Industrywide, independent craft brewers continue to thrive nationwide but at a slower pace, according to a 2016 year-end report by the not-for-profit Brewers Association.

Denver mega-skyscraper project has no land, says owner of downtown property that had been under contract
The Manahattan-based developer angling to erect an 81-story skyscraper in the heart of downtown Denver is no longer under contract to buy land where the building is supposed to go, the property’s owner said Monday.
But the developer’s attorney said the situation is a misunderstanding and his employer fully intends to buy the land and build the building.
The Six Fifty 17 project would be the tallest building in Denver as proposed, reaching a height of 1,000 feet. It would bring a combined 705,045 square feet of hotel, condo, parking and amenities space to the corner of 17th and California streets, according to documents that representatives of developer Greenwich Realty Capital submitted to city planners this month.
But Greenwich will have to make some land purchases before it can break ground on the $371 million project.
Greenwich’s contract to buy a 25,000-square-foot lot on the corner now occupied by an asphalt parking lot, where the building would sit, has expired without a deal..
Colorado landlords would have to limit rental application fees and explain why tenants were rejected under measure
Landlords would be required to tell prospective rental-property tenants more about their application costs and requirements in a measure that passed the Democratic-controlled House on Monday.
House Bill 1127 also seeks to limit rental application charges to the costs of background and credit checks and mandate that landlords spell out to applicants the requirements for approval — such as rental and credit histories and income.
The legislation would also require landlords to provide a written notice to rejected tenants, as well, explaining on what grounds they were turned away. Landlords, under the measure, would also be barred from charging different rental application fees to different applicants and from changing those fees between different properties they might be offering for rent.
Those who violate the legislation, should it go on to be signed by the governor, would face penalties.
The measure passed 36-27 and now heads to the Republican-controlled Senate.
