It was just a bit after 4 o’clock in the afternoon last Wednesday, when I sauntered across the tracks of the Santa Fe Railyard, toward the large industrial-looking building which had previously been fenced off and posted with signs reading “Nuckolls Brewing coming soon” since well before the pandemic. Today was the day the long-awaited…

Beer Notes: Pint Glass day is nearly here and more brewers are on the move
Just a few rapid-fire items from the old beer notebook for this week. We kick off with the New Mexico Brewers Guild’s third Pint Glass Day, this time featuring a design with the Rio Grande Cutthroat Trout. The glasses will be released at multiple breweries statewide this Wednesday. Second Street’s creative director, Mariah Cameron Scee,…
Beer Notes: Downshift expands again, Flock of Moons inches closer to opening
It’s been a minute or two since we emptied the notebook, so let’s get right to it. Downshift Brewing sent us a press release last week about opening a third offsite location.

Beer Notes: Updates on all the new places still in progress
With the recent openings (re-openings?) of two closed-turned-new-breweries — Lizard Tail Industrial (neé Cantero) and Juno (ex-Dialogue) — we figured it might be a good time to catch up on what is still in the forthcoming brewery/taproom pipeline. Also, our planned story for today fell through, so here we are, going to Plan B. Got an…
Checking in on all the forthcoming breweries and taprooms frozen in place
Back when I interviewed the Bow & Arrow Brewing staff about their new canning line, co-owner Shyla Sheppard said that the forthcoming Rambler Taproom in Farmington has been placed on indefinite hold. It made sense, not having a patio and all, but it ended up getting all of us in the Crew wondering about what…
