The mostly complete guide to July 4 hours at New Mexico craft breweries

Let Mother Nature light up the sky. Really, we don’t need Burque to look like 2003 Baghdad tonight.

As a public service that we do for most significant holidays, we attempt to compile all the brewery hours of operation for whatever is up next. In this case, it is the Fourth of July, which produces a whole mix of places keeping normal hours, some closing early, and others taking the day off to watch things go boom in the sky.

Like most holidays, this is far from a complete list. Breweries were kinda last-minute at announcing their hours of operation. Eh, it’s the summer, it’s been weirdly humid, and they are probably just looking forward to the long dark winter as much as we are. What? No one but us crazy metalheads are looking forward to that? Well, clearly some of you have not seen the list of albums coming out late in the year. Plus, ya know, stout season and all that. ANYWAY, let us move on before our heat-melted brains go off on another tangent.
