The Week Ahead in Beer: Earn a pint by helping Canteen help a local school
We’re gonna keep this intro short and sweet this week. Let’s just say that Brandon and I, despite our best efforts to defy the laws of physics, could not get a big couch through a small door this morning. Anyway, both Canteen locations are hosting a school supply drive this Sunday from noon to 9…
The Week Ahead in Beer: Getting crispy amid the heat of summer
The whole Christmas in July trend is fine, we guess. But, if you’re really gonna do it right, follow the lead of La Cumbre. This Friday the brewery is hosting Crispness in July, with four crispy lagers available amid all this heat. The quartet of PLS German Pilsner, Lager Softly, Czech Pils, and Helles Lager…
The Week Ahead in Beer: Canteen asks us all to run for Ruidoso
Unless you have been avoiding the news (not that we can blame you) for the past few weeks, you have probably seen that once again Ruidoso has been hit by some dramatic, and deadly, flash floods. The burn scars from last year’s big wildfires have left parts of the town especially susceptible to flooding, causing…
The Week Ahead in Beer: Multiple breweries step up to help doggos
Love dogs? We sure do. We love them just about everywhere, but it’s a little extra fun seeing them enjoying brewery patios alongside their humans. This Sunday will feature a new event called Adopt the Block, where four breweries and two distilleries along First and Second streets will all have dog adoption setups from Animal…
The Week Ahead in Beer: Go forth on the Fourth and enjoy something local
Well, look at that, a national holiday finally falls on a weekend. After a year of Monday holidays (St. Patrick’s Day, Cinco de Mayo, etc.), it’s nice to have the Fourth of July on a Friday. Well, maybe for us regular folks, but it does put a slight crimp in things for breweries. Fridays are…
The Week Ahead in Beer: Guild members collaborate on new IPA
A few weeks ago, the New Mexico Brewers Guild brought together a slew of breweries to participate in a new collaboration. Bosque Brewing hosted everyone at their Bernalillo location, and with support from national sponsors Briess Malt & Ingredients Co., Country Malt Group, Hopsteiner, and Lallemand Brewing, a new beer was born. Enchanted IPA (7%…
The Week Ahead in Beer: Gravity Bound celebrates 5th anniversary
Gravity Bound has always kept things fairly low-key, so it should come as no surprise that while they are celebrating their fifth anniversary this Saturday, the whole thing just feels like a classic laid-back affair. Well, maybe, as there will be a burger pop-up from Farm Shark, a dog adoption and fundraiser with Animal Humane,…
The Week Ahead in Beer: Kaktus’ biggest event leads a jam-packed weekend
This is another one of those event-heavy weekends with a little something for everyone, but Sunday specifically is for the dads. Timing out their biggest annual event with Father’s Day, Kaktus Brewing is once again set to host the Farmhouse Ale Event at Loretto Park in Bernalillo. There will be food trucks, a beer garden,…
The Week Ahead in Beer: Nexus gears up for a delicious anniversary weekend
We have chronicled in the past how the construction along I-25 has put Nexus Brewery’s main location in a bit of a bind, to put it mildly. This weekend, however, will mark a bit of an opportunity to help Nexus rebound a bit with a big 14th anniversary party. Live music starts Friday at 6…
