Jemez Mountain Brewhouse beckons all to the mountains for 3rd anniversary party
The temperatures are going up this weekend, which means it might just be time to go hide in the mountains for a few hours. Of course, this being New Mexico, there are breweries in those mountains, including Jemez Mountain Brewhouse in Jemez Springs. Starting today (Thursday) and running through Monday, Jemez Mountain is celebrating their…
Game on! Boxing Bear kicks it up a notch for 2025 edition of Bear Fest
It’s time to get those competitive fires burning, because Bear Fest is back with a whole new setup of the ultimate backyard games, plus a new beer, food, music, vendors, merchandise and more this Saturday from noon to 6 p.m. at Boxing Bear Firestone.

Santa Fe Brewing sues former employee and current Marble co-owner
Over the past weekend, the Crew obtained a copy of a legal complaint filed by Santa Fe Brewing Company against a former employee who now just happens to be a co-owner of Marble Brewery. It caught us slightly off guard, so we can only imagine how Jarrett Babincsak felt. The Albuquerque Journal went ahead and…
Playing the waiting game or a preview of what stories are on deck for summer
Last week was quiet. Like, ridiculously quiet, as far as beer stories go. We have entered into a bit of a news lull, it appears, as breweries prep for the summer rush that they know/hope is coming. Everyone could use a great a summer, and most that we have spoken to recently are optimistic after…

Untapped Community Awards bestowed upon 27 New Mexico breweries
Whatever you think of Untappd, and for us it’s mainly a way to keep track of the beers we’ve consumed, it remains the primary app for craft brewery enthusiasts around the country. In that spirit of around the country, Untappd went and made the Community Awards, where it uses those ratings bestowed upon the beers…
The mostly complete guide to Super Bowl hours and events at local breweries
As promised in The Week Ahead in Beer, here’s a separate little article on how breweries are dealing with the Super Bowl on Sunday afternoon/evening. It’s little because far fewer have announced what they’re doing (if anything) than we originally thought. Whoops. Basically, if a brewery does not have TVs, it’s probably just business as…
New owners of Marble Brewery already hard at work during transitional phase
Meet the new bosses, not the same as the old bosses, but not too different, either. At least that is the sense I picked up on when I met up with the new owners of Marble Brewery, Jarrett Babincsak and Bert Boyce, to talk about where we were in the transition last Friday. The duo…
