Marble Brewery (One Eleven Bar & Venue) · Downtown
One of Albuquerque's largest and most-decorated breweries, anchored downtown with a hoppy IPA, a red ale, and Wildflower Wheat poured on a live-music patio. Gil's Thrilling Blog notes the rotating local food trucks that feed the taproom crowd across its several metro locations.
La Cumbre Brewing Co · Midtown
Nearly 15 years of award-winning beer, anchored by the flagship Elevated IPA.
Canteen Brewhouse · Albuquerque
One of the city's longest-running brewpubs, pouring core and seasonal beers for almost 30 years.
Rio Bravo Brewing Company · Albuquerque
World-class beers and a pub-style kitchen that makes an easy meeting place.
Bow & Arrow Brewing Co. · Sawmill
A 2026 James Beard Foundation finalist for Outstanding Bar, this Sawmill-district brewery from founder Shyla Sheppard (of the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nation) brews Southwest beers built on Indigenous ingredients. The Albuquerque Journal points to the Denim Tux blue corn pilsner, the mango-and-citrus See the Canyons hazy IPA, and SETI NOT YETI, an oatmeal stout with charred-marshmallow richness. Five-ounce pours make a tasting flight easy.
