Such a great find in downtown Tucson. It's a nice big spot with high ceilings and a lot seating. We sat at the bar and the bartender was very friendly and helpful. She gave us some taste testers which helped us narrow down our beers. I got the flagship hazy IPA, which was as delicious. read more

Pueblo Vida fits the profile of the type of brewery everyone loved to make fun of in the 2010s: Bland interior, a menu full of IPAs, and full of millennials. I give them a pass because I like India Pale Ales and all things bitter. And I appreciate their dedication to having distinct varieties: Hazy, West Coast, and if you're lucky, one that's wacky and unfiltered. The descriptions make it easier for intermediate hop fans to distinguish between Citra, Cascade, etc. These are not entry-level brews. The rest of the menu is pretty sparse. There's seltzer, and it's mid. One Stout, one Porter, one Pilsner, and so on. I will often find something I like here, and I will gladly dub it the best place in town to sit somewhere peaceful and pound a couple hoppy beers. But there's just not enough going on for me to really recommend it to the average person. read more

I like this place because their beers are delicious. It's not a large bar and while it has two TVs and one that wasn't working on the side, it's not really a sports bar. If you looking for that there are better places like The Playground around the corner. But it is a great place to sit with a small group of friends and talk. You can even get beer in cans to go. Service is great but you do have to go to the bar to order. They don't have any food here, so don't come on an empty stomach, but sometimes there is a food cart. Parking is gonna be street or paid parking lot. It is in the heart of downtown so that is to be expected. I heard that they show MLS games and was one of the very few in town that did, but on the day I came there were watching March Madness. I did ask the bartender if they have apple TV that shows MLS season pass but he didn't really know and said if they did it would be on the TV around the corner which looked like it wasn't working. So I'm still not sure. Would be nice if I can find a single bar in this town decided to soccer. I doing think this is the one. read more

Pueblo Vida is such a local gem. Located in the heart of downtown in a renovated brick building, this is my go to spot for hazy IPAs (and not to mention a very good Hefeweizen). They expanded a few years back and have a variety of seating albeit all indoors. They curate nice events (painting and yoga etc). They have tbs but only turn them on for the wildcats. read more

Mondays all pints are $5! I've been here a couple of times and if you are on their email list, serve, they actually have quite a few events that they host and specials each month. Make sure to check their website for upcoming beer releases. The staff is friendly and there is a decent amount of seating. The last time I came here, it was a little weird because it smelled like urine in the corner at a table we were sitting at, so maybe opt for a table in the middle or at the bar. Otherwise, great place if you like IPAs, and they also have a great beer that they created for the professional soccer team, which is delicious! read more

Steve and I recently tried a beer from Pueblo Vida Brewing in Tuscon. The beer that we had was the Coyote's Revenge 2 : Vengeance. Quite a title for a beer of ypu ask me. This beer was a New England IPA that was solid. It had a citusy, creamy and sweet flavor which was pretty good. It was very smooth as it went down with this hazy looking beer. Glad to have tried this brewery as it was on my list and eager to explore more of Tuscon's craft beer scene to get a lay of the land and pick up general beer styles that may be popular there if there are any. It may be a part of the IPA popularity but only further investigation would reveal this to me. read more

I went to two other places before this brewery and this one was by far the best. The stout was super smooth and great if you like dark beers. The Hef was also smooth and had a nice vanilla aftertaste to it. This is definitely a great spot to sit and have a beer with a few friends. The ambience is nice and clean (doesn't smell like old/stale bar) and the beer is fresh and tasty. The bartenders were very nice and let me try as many beers as I wanted before making my final choice. I am definitely going to be coming back! read more

Was nearby and decided to stop by and I am glad I did. They have been in business for over eight years at the same location (very much a part of the community). I had flights of their beers. Really liked the Clara Vida Super Light, Kintsugi, and Porter. They have multiple taps with lots of IPAs. Rotating beers (multiple types per month). Check out the walls for a ongoing galley of cans released (over 200). Service was friendly and attentive (thanks Liz and Leah). Sadly, no foods, but have snacks. Food can be brought in. I would highly recommend drinking here. If nearby give it a try. Enjoy!! read more

I visited this place on a Saturday at 4:30pm. It was already hustling, but there were seats available both at the bar and at the long tall social tables. I had a Hef (5.4 ABV) and my friend had the dark Hecate lager (6.3 ABV) The Hef is one of the best hefeweizens in Tucson, full-bodied with a banana-clove finish. The Hecate was good, but lacked body. The place is small. It is dog-friendly, as three pooches were in the front when we came in. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They don't serve food, but you can purchase flavored popcorn for $5. There are outlets at the bar for phones or other electronics. Some of the other flagship beers were not available when we visited, but I will definitely be back on my next Tucson pubcrawl. I want to try their Blood Orange Syzygy Pale Ale next, which is also available in 16-ounce cans. This place also does Tuesday night tap infusions. Pueblo Vida is within a few blocks of Ten55 and Thunder Canyon brewpubs and well worth a visit. I will be back! read more

I came for an event and immediately realized this is the kind of spot where every visit probably reveals something you missed the last time. The space is wildly eclectic in a way that feels intentional, not chaotic. You look up, you look around, you look again. There's a whole back area you wouldn't even know exists unless you wander, complete with its own seating and energy. Turns out they host yoga back there, plus a rotating lineup of events that actually feel community-driven instead of forced. Then there's the food situation. A Thai street food truck parked on site serving absolute flavor bombs. I had a curry tofu Thai taco--something I've never seen, let alone eaten--and it brought legit spice and depth. One of those "wait, why is this so good?" moments. Inside, the details keep stacking. A vending machine filled with mini purses, bath salts, and handmade artisan goods? Unhinged (affectionately). Swag everywhere. Walls that give you something new to look at every few seconds. And if that wasn't enough, they partner with Anello, which happens to be my favorite pizza in the city--so yes, that alone earns points. What really sealed it for me was how inclusive the menu is. A full non-alcoholic selection, vegan cookies and non-vegan options, so no one feels like an afterthought. Service was solid, friendly, and matched the laid-back but intentional vibe of the place. Honestly, I'm shocked it took me this long to make it to Crooked Tooth--but now that I have, I get it. This isn't just a brewery. It's a choose-your-own-adventure kind of space, and I'm already looking forward to the next chapter.

The only downside is that they don't serve the beer in proper glassware (everything comes in plastic cups), which takes away a bit from the overall experience. That said, the atmosphere is great, the staff is friendly, and the beer is delicious. Definitely a spot worth checking out

Bakasana and beer!

Checked out Brick Box Brewery for the first time and it instantly became one of my favorite spots…read more The vibe was super chill, and they have a great selection of beers to choose from. They also serve up Wagyu smash burgers, which hit the spot. I ordered the KB Special Smashburger, Kaiju Fries, and an IPA. Everything was delicious and refreshing. The bartender who took our order was really cool and friendly, which made us feel welcome on our first visit. It's a great place to grab a drink, hang out with friends, and just kick back. Can't wait to come back!

We also shared fries that were cooked in beef tallow - very tasty! I also had a matcha iced cream cone with chili oil! It wasn't sweet, and just tasted like, well matcha! The chili oil came in a little cup on the side and you just poured it over your iced cream - smooth and the matcha and chili flavors went really well together! The space was nice in the old Thunder Canyon location so plan for downtown parking and paying a meter!

What I love: Excellent tap selection that doesn't lean too heavily on the IPAs. Their menu features quite a few AZ beers, and they've got fridges full of additional bottles and cans 'round the corner from the bar. If you have non-drinkers in your party, they will be well represented with options like N/A beers, mineral waters, juices, and tepache. Did I mention you could bring food in as well? You can totally do that, and they're happy to see you stay a little while longer while enjoying your favorite meal. It's got enough space for community events, local markets, and other events. You can bring outside food. You can enjoy the best beers AZ has to offer. What are you waiting for?

We started with a couple of beer tastings and ended up choosing the Mexican Amber "Ortega." It was incredibly refreshing and definitely our favorite. Our bartender was fantastic, very friendly, attentive, and even gave us a discount because he accidentally forgot to ask my friend what size beer she wanted. Great customer service and a fun atmosphere. We'd definitely stop by again

The interior invites you to take a picture, the music is loud, it just appears to be catered to a very particular demographic. Evidently, that is not me, and that's okay! I ordered the banana cream matcha latte at recommendation from someone who's visited before with the matcha tiramisu. In the latte, I was hoping for a more flavorful banana cream. It had a nice finish and was very smooth, but I wouldn't have been able to guess it being flavored if I hadn't known. Both items were made from high quality matcha, so expect the steep price tag associated. Combined with the baristas being unable to differentiate between drink orders at the end of their bar, I wasn't really amazed given the reputation Brucha has. Maybe I didn't even receive my drink, and the above is all unfounded, but I won't be figuring that out anytime soon.

At Crema, they use one big ice cube that resembles one found in a whiskey on the rocks. A large part of me thinks that the finished product can be attributed to the fact that virtually nothing is watered down. The barista was incredibly kind and inviting from the moment I walked in to the moment I left. Because of this, I can get past the sparse seating options that made it feel a little hollow. There weren't a ton of people seated, but it seemed like a good, quiet place to work. More people need to know about this tucked away little place.

There are games to play, cards, art prints for sale, books, etc. The couch is comfy and the place feels very clean! Baristas are friendly and are a pleasure to talk to. Pastry selection varies, but they know each item and utensils are provided at the end of the bar. I had an iced mocha latte (12oz) for $7.27 post tax. ^^ Like other reviewers say, the flavor of the coffee is great! The one large ice cube is lovely for keeping the drink not watery, but it doesn't make your drink feel COLD cold if that's something you prefer. My cube lasted an hour in their glass cup, and the drink tasted great and flavorful even when it was gone. No condensation worries at all. Straws are nice and sturdy too! Would come back again. (:

Unfortunately, the service felt a bit cold, no one acknowledged me, and the staff didn't seem very welcoming or engaged. I ordered an iced matcha latte, which came unsweetened. No one mentioned that ahead of time or pointed out where the sweeteners were, so I had to look around for them myself. The matcha had a nice flavor, but the texture was a bit grainy, suggesting it might not be the highest quality. Also, the bathrooms are located all the way in the back, and there isn't enough signage to guide you there easily. Overall, it has a lot of charm and a great location, but the customer experience could definitely be improved.

It was cooked nicely with a crunchy bottom , good flop and melted cheese. Beef pistachio salad was tasty and well balanced. Overall fresh ingredient. Dressing was a little oily but overall delicious. We also got a plate that reminded me of a charcuterie like dish. The butter and bread were delicious. The meat and cheese were tasty but I think I could have used more cheese. Overall not bad but not very memorable. Service was friendly and nice.
