The brewery is in an unassuming warehouse. Inside, the warehouse ambiance is maintained but they do have a kitchen hidden away somewhere and a patio. The beer selection is pretty wide but featured a lot of styles that just don’t personally do it for me. The IPA was ok. Beer is available in 10, 16, or 20 oz pours. I ordered a smoked brisket sandwich which was enormous and piled high with meat for a very affordable price. It tasted pretty good for what these westerners refer to as "barbecue". Cool stop, I’d like to try more of their beers to get a better idea of the place.

Pretty much all seats have a view into the brewery, with a few tantalizing wooden casks off to one side. Beers are decent enough. Food was just sandwiches and chips, tasty but not too substantial. Worth a stop.

I liked the gritty vibe to this place, but found the beer average and the service from the wait staff pretty bad. Service was much better at the bar.

Dropped in on a Friday afternoon during ABQ beer week, and this place was *crazy* busy even as early as 4:00. Contemporary style, ample lighting, spacious high ceilings and a patio area to sit outside if one should desire. Glass windows behind the bar allow one to see into the brewery area. I tried the house IPA and the ABQ collaborative beer while I was there and enjoyed both. A good place to enjoy good beer in Albuquerque.

If you’re a fan of the chain, or want to try some good pizza, make sure to stop by. This is one of their better locations, and the stout was tasty when I was there.

Good spot. Open, modern. Lots of seasonals and the IPAs at least are well made. Service was fine. Didn’t eat but I like the pizzas at the Santa Fe location and I presume they are more or less the same here.

Taproom located in warehouse located in warehouse district. Nice modernist vibe given the location. They had 10 things on tap with the emphasis on seasonals. The service was quite attentive. It was obvious many of the workers had a passion for beer. It says something when the brewpub workers also hang out there. The prices were reasonable and all Rhee beers were solid to very good.

Comfy brewery tap with better than average beers. Limited menu but decent sandwiches with meats sliced to order, and nice patio outside too.

Formerly a tap room only, now serves sandwiches and appetizers, still has the feel of a brewery tap room, could call it either a brewery or brewpub as far as I’m concerned. Very spacious and lively-feeling interior with a large gravel patio area as well. Not exactly the prettiest location for the patio, but it’s still nice if you want to be outside. Also get a lot of way-above-average-for-the-brewpub-scene music acts that perform outside, which just adds to the great feel of the place. Four seasonals and four regulars on when I was there, not sure if they sometimes might have more options. They also have a cask tapped every Wednesday at noon (which this particular week was also a different beer from the ones on tap). Though the seasonals were geared toward the summer season, they also included a coffee stout, and in general seem to mix things up a good deal. The following week saw a spectacular single and a half IPA. Beer quality was very good. Standard prices for the area, and I really appreciate that they always ask you what size you want, as I often only want a 10 oz. or similar size, but also often forget to say so when I order. Yet another awesome beer spot in Albuquerque, which, if the place ratings are any indication, seems to be overlooked lately by the average ratebeerian.
