Back on Friday I was planning on charging down to the “crane-lifting ceremony” at Green Jeans Farmery, the site near Carlisle and I-40 that will host the first Santa Fe Brewing taproom in Albuquerque. Of course, whenever you have an hour to get from work to anywhere else, there will inevitably be delays. I pretty…

Beer Notes: Rejoice, all the brewery bills have been signed
Late last night the Crew was informed by the NM Brewers Guild that Governor Susana Martinez has signed all three of the major bills that affect our breweries. Well, that is just one giant relief. After all, we had spent the better part of two weeks singing the praises of these bills and yet none…

Surprise, the second annual Marchfest was a huge hit
Last Saturday was the second annual Marchfest put on by Buffalo Thunder Resort and Casino.

Of course good days…
Beer Notes: A stealth festival, new walking tour, and an avalanche of big IPAs
A year ago the folks up at Buffalo Thunder Casino held a beer festival that almost no one outside of Santa Fe knew about. Guess what? They’re holding it again, and once again, they have done next to zero advertising/promoting down here in Albuquerque. Hey, BTC staff, there’s an estimated 900,000 people down here in…
