Like any good brewery, Marble will be celebrating that anniversary with all of their faithful customers.

Marble adds another food option at Westside Taproom
The fans of Marble’s Westside Taproom are a loyal bunch. Any hint of change can sometimes send them into a bit of social media panic, as some of us noticed last weekend. At issue was a rumor that food trucks were no longer going to be parking outside, or at least there would be limitations,…
Marble rolls through one year of transition into a potentially explosive 2016
If anyone out there thinks that 2015 was a massive year for Marble, just wait, because 2016 could be massive. For this next entry in our Look Back/Look Ahead Series for 2015-16 (following La Cumbre, Bosque, Tractor, and Distillery 365), I sat down with Marble owner Ted Rice, head brewer Josh Trujillo, beer ambassador Tony…
Gazing into the future of the New Mexico brewing scene
After a slew of slow news days regarding the local brewing scene, the intrepid Stephanie Guzman of Albuquerque Business First posted a story today about Rio Bravo Brewing applying for a $5 million county industrial revenue bond. A surprising move? Maybe to some, not to others. Rio Bravo has been talking big since before they…
New Mexico breweries endure a tough day at GABF but still earn 4 medals
New Mexico breweries were not able to recapture the medal haul of the past two years at the Great American Beer Festival on Saturday, but there were still a few impressive medals earned. This year saw four breweries bring home four medals. New Mexico breweries had earned eight medals apiece in 2013 and 2014. Bosque…
New Mexico breweries poised to storm GABF once again
In case anyone has been living under a rock of late, the Great American Beer Festival, that annual homage to craft beer, begins Thursday and runs through Saturday in Denver. In addition to the thousands upon thousands of beer served up at the Denver Convention Center, there will be hundreds of satellite events, special tappings,…
Rice serves up all the details on the big Marble expansion that is underway
As many of you probably saw in the Albuquerque Journal last week, Marble has finally broken ground on their long-awaited brewery expansion downtown. The Crew was not able to attend that ceremony, but Marble was kind enough to invite us over for a sit-down with co-owner/brewmaster/mastermind Ted Rice on Wednesday afternoon to go over the…
Ponderosa plucks their new brewer from just down the road at Marble
A while back we reported on the pending departure of founding brewer Matt Kollaja from Ponderosa Brewing. At the time we did not know why Matt was leaving the nascent brewery, nor who his replacement would be. While serving as the proverbial fly-on-the-wall for the creation of the 505 Collaboration beer, Matt told me that…
Marble’s marvelous duo of Rice and Kornke keep the brewery rolling
Before the Isotopes returned to Albuquerque to suck up all of my available free time last week, I trekked over to Marble Brewery to interview Amberley Rice and Anna Kornke, two women with very different but equally important jobs, for our ongoing NM Women in Brewing series. Amberley is Marble’s director of marketing, and as…
Marble’s Gonzalez keeps the taprooms humming amid the chaos
After a little lull, otherwise known as “I had to cover the Isotopes’ opening homestand,” the Crew is restarting our series on NM Women in Brewing. At long last, we are delving into the (many) women working in key positions down at Marble Brewery. Being a tad busy right now with their Anniversary Week, rather…
