While in Albuquerque recently, we were on the hunt for our favorite brewery. Bow and Arrow filled…read morethe bill! From the moment we arrived, the service and ambiance were warm, welcoming, and where we wanted to be! Large and open, Bow and Arrow is spacious for folks to come for pint, small groups, as well as large groups and company events. We sat at the bar for more face-to-face service and had a great experience. We each got a flight and loved the ability to try four different beverages each since the menu is so extensive, creative, and delicious! I got the "Dos Arrows," "Wildly No. 1," "Bury My Heart," and "Lav Letters to the SW." I listed them in order of my favorites. Each beverage was complex, unique, and delicious! I would have enjoyed a full pint of each drink! Alas, 4 5oz beverages was enough! Prices are reasonable for such high quality beverages! We also loved that the brewery recognizes Indigenous land rights and supports Native American initiatives. Euro-Americans have much to learn from Native peoples, the original stewards of this land. But first, relationships, listening, and reparations are needed! We loved Bow and Arrow Brewing. We look forward to visiting again next time we are in town!

Marble Brewing in downtown Albuquerque absolutely nailed St. Patrick's Day this year…read more We stopped by on St Patrick's Day and it was such a fun, festive atmosphere. Of course we had to get the green beer! Sitting outside, enjoying the sunshine with a cold drink in hand, it felt like the perfect way to celebrate. But the real highlight? The Highland cows I mean... how often do you get to sip a beer AND pet adorable, fluffy cows wearing little festive hats?! It was such a unique touch that made the whole event stand out from your typical bar scene. Marble always delivers on a great beer selection, but events like this take it to another level. If you're looking for a brewery that goes all out for holidays and creates a fun, memorable experience--this is the spot. Already looking forward to next year!

It was the first brewery that a friend took me to and I have continued to return. Yes, I have been to many of the other breweries that have popped up around town, but I still come back to Marble. Why? Beer is excellent. Service is also excellent. Both the inside atmosphere and the outside patio are very comfortable. Food? They don't have food. Well, wait a minute . . . they always have food trucks. Many a dinner has come from one of the conveniently located food trucks right outside their front patio. Always good. Large parking lot. And live music happens on designated evenings. Are they the best in town? Not sure, but they definitely have something unique that keeps bringing me back.

She introduced me to the blood orange cider, which the only and favorite cider I can drink. I don't drink beer and rarely drink ciders (when forced) but this one I wish they would sell in Texas, but they don't. We bought some cans that I was able to bring back in my luggage for a few extra days of enjoying it while here. Every time I go to ABQ now, I must stop at Tractor Brewing for this blood orange cider on draft, which I wish they could get the same experience in a can...it's close!

All the times I've gone, it's really dead so we don't stay long. Some highlights are that I actually took a mixology class here back in June which was pretty awesome and also for Halloween, they had a fun selection of seasonal offerings! I had a candy apple cauldron cocktail thing and it was delicious! Also we happened upon one afternoon while the Kentucky derby was being broadcast and all the staff were dressed up and so were the patrons. It was really random but fun nonetheless Tractor used to be a staple when choosing somewhere to hang out but with the recent openings of other venues, it's more like a precursor to your actual venue of choice and not the main venue of choice.

It's a nice, big airy, friendly space with a large outside area bordering Central. I ordered the Penguin Tuxedo Stout which was good. And my wife had a faux mojito which was refreshing. It's passover so I didn't have a burger but they have plenty of options. I got the wings with the Red Chile Ranch sauce and the Brewers Garden Mix salad with red onions and fet which was delicious. I judge my wings by how much I gnaw on them after I eat most of the meat and these were stripped clean. Great place for a relaxed lunch!!
