    Dining area
    Shannon C.

    Delicious and affordable! The beer is tracking as award winning and smash burgers working class. Nothing fancy but all smashable. My new fave. Large dining area and a very chill and usable patio. Check it out for family gatherings, Sunday fun day, and all around shenanigans.

    I came here recently after my partner suggested their smash burgers. They had stopped by earlier in the day for some drinks with a friend and said we may enjoy their burgers. The staff were super friendly and welcoming as I entered the brewery. The burgers were small but tasty and the fries were good too. Def planning on ordering a double next time I'm there. This seems like a fun spot to gather with a group of friends or family for a get together. My only feedback and this has nothing to do on the staff, the patrons there that day gave me a lot of stares and almost made it feel unwelcoming to be there. I hope in the future if I do come by again that this may not be the same experience. Even if staff were very friendly. I share this not to make staff feel bad, just as a POC sharing their experience.

    This is my ABQ Beer Passport review for Dripline Brewing. Easy to get to, parking on the street. Nice, clean bright taproom with a decent outdoor sitting area. No real view but I imagine great for bocce or cornhole in warmer weather. In-house kitchen offering burgers & fries (but no green chile cheese fries). Did not eat anything. Handful of beer offerings including IPA, APA, Pilsner, wheat, amber ale & mexi lager. All had high ibu's. No dark beers, Nothing that excites me to return. Barstools were uncomfortable after a while so we moved to a picnic style table.

    Indoor seating area

    I have been here 3 times and every time was so so good! They have a great set up, good beer and kombucha and the staff is friendly. Huge outdoor area and games for the kiddos. Kind of feels like hanging out in your best friend's backyard! Highly recommend.

    We visited a few weeks ago and I can't wait to visit again when they have their own beers up and running. This space is beautiful, modern, and comfortable. It was decked out for Christmas and looked great. Even though they didn't have their own beers on tap quite yet, they had a great selection of other awesome local beers so you can definitely find something you'll like. There's lots of parking, lots of outdoor space, and the indoor space is sunny and bright. The staff was great too. So happy we stopped in and we will be back soon!

    Great spot to grab an ice cold beer and catch up with friends.   We went on a Thursday and they had live music and a cute patio.

    Great place to get a beer, burger and catch up with friends. Let me tell you the burgers were absolutely amazing! We went on a Thursday and they had live music and a cute outdoor patio.

    Menu hasn't been updated but they definitely carry their competition on tap.

    Yeah. Not that great. They opened without any of their own beers on tap and the beers they do have on tap are not worth wild. Overpriced and close too early. Plenty of other well established breweries to visit and wont over charge you. Plus their own website hasn't been updated with what they have on tap.

    What a great diamond in the rough. Dripline Brewery is a great place for families and has its own private parking.

    New Mexico green chili Smashburger, cilantro lime coleslaw, house made potato chips, and some kind of specialty pill Pilsner. YUM!
    Chris Nyman W.

    I really love this SOUTH FACING outdoor space! Custom designed wood and metal picnic tables, trees, shed structure and greenery... they have a small selection of Craft Beers from other local breweries and a few of their own, and recently added... FOOD! Nice friendly people, quick service, and tasty food. Try the cilantro lime coleslaw!

    Great new Brewery, went the day after their first beer release. It was a good one. They were very accommodating for our large group and they also had a food truck. Highly recommend stopping by and checking this place out.

    What a fun new place! (New for me!)…read more The burrito was a whopper, and the tacos we got were filling as well. Loved the brownie dessert and the mango guava agua Fresca too! All in all, great meal and a great price. Two drinks, two dinners and a dessert for $48 before top.

    We read a lengthy glowing review of La Reforma in a recent ABQ Journal issue and had high hopes of…read morefinding something similar to the tacos we used to get in and near Cuernavaca, Morelos where we lived 2008-13. Sadly, we found kind of a mixed bag. First, the standout items. The margaritas were fantastic; some of the best we've had in the USA and extremely generous. The pinto bean sides were some of the best we've had since returning to the States in 2013. Perhaps not quite as great as those of the shuttered El Cotorro but still stellar. Next, the tacos. We tried only two of the several tacos on offer - The El Pastor and the Pescado. Both were served in what was called "corn tortillas" but these differed from virtually any corn tortillas we've ever had in Mexico or elsewhere. They were at least twice as thick as your typical corn tortilla found in just about all Mexican taco places in Mexico and elsewhere. The consistency and taste were quite different from your normal corn tortilla also. In fact, they really didn't seem to have much taste at all, of corn or anything else. Now to the fillings. At the aforementioned El Cotorro, the meat for the Al Pastor tacos was cooked on a vertical rotating spit which was the only way we ever saw it cooked in Mexico. The meat La Reforma used in their al pastor tacos was more chunky and way drier than any we ever had in Mexico or at El Cotorro. It didn't taste similar to any al pastor tacos were ever had in Mexico. It also kind of seemed like it wasn't cooked recently whereas in Mexico you can watch the cook with a large knife carve off the meat from the vertical spit right in front of you. Usually the time between the carving and it sitting in front of you is under 10 seconds. The fish taco at La Reforma was disappointing. The fish resembled a fish stick but one without much flavor. We wouldn't order it again. We gave the mini-churros a try for dessert. Because they were so small, they were way crispier than your typical regular-sized churro. We might return but we'd skip the al pastor and the fish tacos and try some of the other tacos. But we strongly suggest that they dump their current "corn tortillas" because they're not that good. Way too thick and virtually tasteless. Lo siento. Kudos for the margaritas and the beans. The rest of what we tried didn't live up to the recent glowing review in the ABQ Journal.

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!

The place and decor are quite cozy with warm and slightly dim lighting and some screens to watch a game or two. The tables can hold a good amount of people and even incentivize strangers to share some space. They have geeks who drink trivia on Wednesdays, by the way! The servers were quite attentive and fast. I think the manager was helped us first with our drinks. He was quite attentive. He sent another server for our food order. The other guy took our orders without notes and even remembering substitutions. The food was out in no time. Our drinks were decent with the blue berry açaí cider (the blackberry cider was too dry) and one of our friends had an IPA. I had the turkey pesto, the hubby had the Nashville hot fried chicken, and our friends had the Boese and the Cali burgers. The turkey pesto had a decent amount of turkey, but needed more pesto. The Nashville hot chicken was tangy more than hot, but it had a good flavor and on the drier end. Our friends described their burgers as ok. The fries were also ok. Overall, the ambiance and service were excellent providing a chill and friendly place to talk. The food and drinks were decent.
