My mom, partner, and I had a lovely time during our last-minute trip to Del Bac over the weekend…read more Though finding the location was a little bit confusing (like most distilleries and breweries, Del Bac is in a warehouse), we were greeted by a cute little storefront once we entered. When we inquired about tastings, we were led to a modest, rustic bar where we shared a couple of flights and some popcorn. The flights were reasonably priced and super fun to try, and the bartender was informative! There was a tour + tasting group going on in the actual distilling facility; next time we're in Tucson it'd be fun to try that out. I'm bummed that I didn't know to look for Two-Row until seeing him here on Yelp, so that's definitely a factor in my drive to come back. :)

My girlfriend and I ventured in for a tasting a little while ago, and some cocktails because she was leaving and moving out of the Old Pueblo. The bartender and staff were outstanding! We were even greeted by some distillery cats, which was really fun. The decor reflects the owners passion for the art of distilling, and echos the history of the art form. Their old fashions were also absolutely delicious. We had a blast and I hope to head in soon with my husband!

The staff is super friendly and down‑to‑earth -- we were from out of town and they gave us great recs, plus they were so sweet to our pup and brought her a water bowl. It was a hot day, so we sat at the bar, and luckily there's plenty of shade and misters, which made it super comfortable. They serve a full bar -- cocktails, beer, wine -- all at great prices with generous pours. I also love that they have a connected shop where you can grab drinks to go, including lots of local and specialty items. It's a perfect stop if you're shopping or eating at the MSA Annex or wandering around the neighboring Mercado San Agustín.

Old Pueblo Cellars is serving up a some great unique wine varietals like Malvasia Bianca, tannat, malbec, Cabernet, Syrah and other unique blends like their Super Tucson. The wine tasting room is a bit small and but has a personal charm of southwestern themes. The outdoor patio areas are great to view the local landscape and take in the warm weather and watch the occasional thunderstorm. Also check out their wine flavored slushies when available.

But then again it makes since when it's 110 degrees outside and going wine tasting. After taking a brief tour of the property, we went inside and were greet by the nicest and most compassionate woman you could ever meet... Next to my wife of course. She was friendly, gave us the history of the winery and shared with us what brought her to work at Old Pueblo. We were there a little over an hour sharing stories; how we met our partners, what's fascinating about wines and what makes Old Pueblo unique. The wines were delicious; 100% organic and prepared in a way where you enjoy every sit and get every bit of the flavor as intended. This is definitely saved on our list of wineries outside of California that we will be going back to. Just got to plan the next road trip.

Wondering why a brewery with kids? Well, half of this place is a giant game room filled with old and new pinball machines, a pool table, a couple video games, foosball, a boxing game and shuffleboard. I met Jim, the awesome bartender on duty, who told me some really net stuff about the place and gave me a limited tour of the brewing room. I tried the CDO Blonde beer, which is fitting for this blonde CDO grad. I thought it was really good. Jim explained that they don't add sugar to their brewing process, and instead their natural flavor options serve as the sugars in brewing. Things like fruits, flowers and nuts take the place of added sugar. The pinball machines are very fun, but I have to say the boxing machine was the highlight for the teenage boys in our group. Seeing who hit hardest was all the rage. Catalina Brewing Company takes their beer on the run, or should I say mountain biking trails, to serve to people at events, which sounds fun. There some neat history in this place. I hear they have trivia nights as well. They are family friendly, serving sodas as well. They make cocktails with wine converted to various types of "liquor ". Overall I thought this was a great place I'd go back to in a heartbeat. Plenty of outdoor and indoor seating, and parking. It was clean and best of all, cool in the summertime. Check out the walls when you're there, including the bathroom walls, for funny memorabilia.

Everyone behind the bar is really knowledgeable and there are always fun events happening every week. Their beers are all brewed in the traditional styles. You'll find a great Pilsner, German-inspired brews like Berliner Weisses, a Scotch Ale and various styles of IPAs, among many others. This place is no frills. They won't make a blueberry pie beer or put fried chicken or other weird stuff in what they brew. You're going to find something here you like if you're a beer drinker and even their lightest beers have a ton more flavor than any macrobrew you see in commercials. The owners are really nice, cool people and they run a family business in every sense of the term. Todd, the one who ad the idea to open this place, is also the head brewer and you can tell how passionate he is about what he does. This brewery was a labor of love and it shows.

We found it and there were about 10 people inside. It's not a big place. Feels like your typical neighborhood bar. Decent selection of beer; I had their Amber, which was good. The bartender was Johnny and he was a friendly guy. I also had one of their soft pretzels. There's a few signs about "no politics or religion", but in the 30 minutes we were there I overheard discussions as to everyone's political beliefs. No one was cranky or anything, which is good. Johnny told us about upcoming events. Pleasant overall; we paid cash to avoid the surcharge.

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

I won't be going back…read more There were only 4 people there (already seated) yet I waited 15 minutes at the counter for a single cup of coffee - no one ever took my order. There was only one unfriendly employee who said they didn't have time because they were making sandwiches in the back and then physically stepped up on me to move back from an arbitrary line at the end of the counter when I was simply asking if they were actually serving coffee. When I said "you know this is terrible service, don't you?" she responded with "I know ". Not sure why I wanted to be there anyway - the place is not clean - if you look, there's dust on everything. It's a shame because it's right up the street from me and I really wanted to like it, but I'm not interested in waiting to them be dismissed and disrespected. This is the perfect example of what not to do in customer service.
