Tractor Brewing reflects on 25 years and preps for one big celebration
Tractor Brewing never really needs an excuse to throw a big party. It’s kinda their thing. But, when it comes to celebrating 25 years in business, the party also comes with plenty of reflection of just what a quarter-century worth of Tractor means. We sat down with co-owner/brewmaster David Hargis and events and marketing director…
The Week Ahead in Beer: Let’s get spooky a few weeks early this year
It’s never too early to get into Spooky Season, right? At least that won’t be the case at three local breweries this weekend, which ties in nicely with Friday being the 13th and all.

Tractor Brewing decides to have their own beer week worth of events

Tractor Brewing plows their way to victory at 2024 Stout Invitational
The stouts did flow on a lovely Saturday afternoon at Bathtub Row Brewing, as the annual Stout Invitational returned to Los Alamos.

The Week Ahead in Beer: At least the stouts aren’t scary at Tractor

The Week Ahead in Beer: Tumbleroot goes full metal in time for jacket weather
So if anyone follows Tumbleroot on social media, you might have spied a reel highlighting a week of metal. Well, if you know us, you know how much we love the metal (it has as much to do with the name of this blog as our love of stouts and porters), so of course that…

The biggest event of every year at Tractor Wells Park is the Stranger Things Arcade Carnival & Bazaar, and this year there will be a whole week’s worth of themed events leading up to Saturday’s extravaganza.

Tractor Wells Park pulls in one big train for a unique fundraising event
There is a long history between breweries and the railroad in New Mexico, dating all the way back to the 19th century when the Southwest Brewery and Ice Company sat right alongside the main rail line just south of present-day Lomas Blvd. This Saturday, a big piece of restored railroad history will roll right up…
