Beer Notes: Yup, there are more new breweries on the way
Some things just never seem to stop around here in Albuquerque. The weather will always be weird and unpredictable. The drivers will continue to stupify us with their, well, stupidity. And new breweries will keep opening. Albuquerque Brewing Co. currently has their first lineup of beers in the fermenters and the bright tanks. They could…
Blue Corn Brewery’s Chef D talks about the beauty of beer and food pairings
Back in January, I attended Defrost Fest at Blue Corn Brewery. It was another excellent event put on by the Southside brewpub, which turned out to be a gathering of locals and even a “who’s whom” of the Santa Fe beer industry. It was an event in grand form, featuring a lot of amazing food…

WinterBrew 2015 was an epic fest for the ages!
It’s been a week now, and the dust has finally settled on another successful WinterBrew. New Mexico beer enthusiasts have been back, hard at work, with memories (hopefully) of many great beers, plenty of new friends on their Facebook rosters, and a slew of crazy pictures on their cellphones.

The time has come for Stout Challenge IV: The Overload
Greetings, everyone, on this snowy Friday. Do be careful out there tonight when in pursuit of beer. Stuff is melting but not evaporating, so that means sheets of ice. And New Mexico drivers are bad enough without ice under their tires, so go slow if you desperately need some nocturnal pints. By Sunday, though, all…
