The editorial take
A craft-beer destination with 20 taps and a 2017 CraftBeer.com state award, this bottle shop and growler station also pours bottled and canned wine. The draft list spans local and regional breweries, from crisp lagers to fruited sours and IPAs. Customers praise the diverse beer selection. Wine is a supporting act, offered for on-site or to-go.
- What should I order?
- Start with Patel Premium Lager from More Brewing Company, a 7.9% Indian-style lager that shows the range beyond typical craft. Then explore the rotating taps for local picks like Supercolor from Pueblo Vida or American Wheat from Dragoon. Ciders are also available on tap.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Beer enthusiasts seeking a deep, rotating draft list with local and regional representation will find much to explore. The bottle shop and growler-fill options suit those who want to take beer home. Wine drinkers have a curated but less detailed selection.
- When should I go?
- Visit during events hosted in the pet-friendly urban beer garden, which is part of the Metal Village arts district. The draft list changes, so repeat visits offer new options.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- CraftBeer.com named this the Great American Beer Bar of Arizona for 2017, and the 20-tap list backs that claim with a mix of local and regional breweries. The combination of bottle shop, growler fills, and an urban beer garden creates a flexible beer destination.
