I really liked this place after only one visit. I picked the PL up from the airport and went to Sun Up to meet a friend for lunch. I was very pleasantly surprised at the quality of the beers available, which included a cask of real ale. The food was very good on all three of our plates and service was excellent. I was even more surprised at the style selection when I met Uwe, the owner/brewer! I wouldn’t have expected a German brewer to be making West Coast-style ales - and excellent ones at that. I will visit Sun Up again when I’m next in PHX and wish Uwe all the best for success.

Really quaint place with a chill vibe. Amazing mural outside of old school movie stars. Small bar, exposed tanks, relaxed atmosphere. Uwe, the owner and brewer is in all the time which is cool. Can’t miss him...great guy! Usually have a seasonal and strong beer on tap in addition to their regular line-up. Their Triple IPA is incredible...if available, get it!

Fun place, good service. Very good food and beer. New stuff is always on tap.

The ambiance here is typical small brewpub. Tasteful 10 or 12 seat wooden bar, medium sized dining room and decor advertising Sun Up beer. The service was excellent on my Monday night visit. I wasn’t all that impressed with AZ beer during my visit. That being said, Sun Up had some of the more solid brews I drank. Two of their taps rotate, one of them being high alcohol. It definitely should be top priority to visit as far as brewpubs in Phoenix go.

A fairly small space with room for 9 beers on tap. Most of their beer was solid but not spectacular which could sum up my feelings about the place.

Stopped in for dinner one night with some freidns while visiting the area. Had the beer sampler which was a fair amount of beer for the price. Food was good, server was nice, and beer was tasty. The handpump was off when I was there but that happens sometimes. Good place, I’d go back.

Cool little place that has a nice, rustic feel. 8 beers on tap with a cask on as well. Food is decent-typical pub grub. Definitely a neighborhood feel here.

Sun up is a great local brewery. They serve only their own beer, however I always found getting growlers there to be beneficial. They do have enough beers on tap to provide preference to a certain style. They do serve their own specialty beers which have proved to be very good.

Sun up is good. Its very solid and there food is better than their beer which is saying something. They have alrght service but their servers aren’t very knowledgeable. Since sun up brews are all you can get the selection is limited but they usually have something interesting that they have been working on. Its probably equal to four peaks in that the value is there, but the food and beer is slightly worse for a better price.
