Visiting ReSource Brewing always evokes a cozy neighborhood feel that is welcoming from the moment you walk in the door, upon which you are immediately greeted by cheerful décor and friendly staff.

NM Brew Fest returned in all of its glory much to the delight of most of the Crew
We set a record Saturday afternoon: The most Crew members at a single festival. Yes, we actually got Franz Solo (and Mrs Solo) out of the house (they have an adorable small child) for the New Mexico Brew Fest at Villa Hispana. We got Luke to come down from Santa Fe. And, neither AmyO nor…
ABQ Beer Week: Get a good education in all things brewing on Day Ten
Well, first up, apologies for not posting a Day Nine preview on Friday. Between beer flights at Levante Brewing, and … well, that alone explains most of it. If you are ever in the suburbs of Philadelphia, make sure to hit up this place, or add it to your next beer shipment. Anyway, the only…

ABQ Beer Week returns after 2-year pandemic hiatus for its 10th edition
In years past, ABQ Beer Week was a massive undertaking, reaching a point of more than 100 events scattered across the city over an 11-day span. It returns this year for its 10th run, fairly scaled back, but no less of a challenge for organizer Marne Gaston and her team. I caught up with Gaston…
Beer Notes: A couple closures remind all that it is still tough out there
We had a few random bits of news floating around, so we scooped them up and typed up a new Beer Notes for the first time in a while. One small brewery and offsite taproom close Two recent closures caught us slightly off guard, mainly because they happened quietly outside the Albuquerque metro area. 1865…
The Week Ahead in Beer: Giving back remains the theme of the moment
It warms our blackened little hearts to see so many breweries getting back to what they do best — besides making great beer, of course — and give back to the community. There are some awesome and unique charitable events this weekend at Canteen Brewhouse and ReSource Brewing in the NE Heights, plus a good…
ReSource and its fellow breweries tap a special stout to benefit Ukraine
The war in Ukraine has dominated the news for weeks now, with no signs of ending. On the surface, it seems like there is little that anyone in Albuquerque can do, but in a time of such horror, sometimes even the smallest gestures can make a difference. For ReSource Brewing co-owner Stephanie Wright, Ukraine is…
The Week Ahead in Beer: A stout for Ukraine and farewell to a favorite spot
We are just scratching the surface of the busy times to come, but this weekend is pretty packed. ReSource Brewing has created a special imperial stout to benefit Ukraine, and the collective of Brew Lab 101, Canteen, High and Dry, Nexus, Steel Bender, Tractor and Rowley Farmhouse Ales will also be putting it on tap…
ReSource Brewing taps into the new Brave Noise collaboration
One of the biggest news stories in the craft beer world in 2021 came about after brewer Brienne Allan went on Instagram and asked, “Have you ever experienced sexism in the beer industry?” The fallout was far-reaching across the industry, and still continues to this day. Yet, like many big stories of the moment, for…
