    This little cozy local brewery was so peaceful. The food & beer were so tasty! The employees were so kind! The owner amazing lady! Pet friendly! Irish music on Thursday nights. Take the family & enjoy!

    Nice patio.

    Since the brewery was a short walk from our AirBnB, we decided to stroll over for a beer before dinner. (Because we only had a beer my review is limited--read other reviews to learn about any food that they serve.) They have a nice patio and plenty of indoor seat at tables or the bar, so even though the parking lot was pretty full, it was not overly crowded despite being fairly busy. The patio area is "dog friendly." The bartender was friendly and promptly poured the beer we selected -- "Hoptoberfest" -- a refreshing German marzen style. Despite the name, beer was lightly, but appropriately hopped, far less than an IPA, so don't let the name scare you away if you don't like hops. I enjoyed my beer and found it to be a good, though not outstanding, example of the "Oktoberfest" style. I'd be interested trying their other beers but I'm only in town for a few more days. Next visit for sure.

    In the Village of Los Ranchos - I'd just gotten my hair done at Christens Salon in front and decided to mosey on back to the Hops Brewery restaurant in back. The thought of their Green Chili Cheese Burger was too strong to ignore and the timing was perfect. The server was very helpful in deciding which beer so I decided on the "New Kid" beer which was a very good choice. It complimented the GCCB just right. It also came with a perfect Coleslaw and slice of dill pickle. The Coleslaw was crunchy with a little bit of black pepper and green chili to compliment the burger and perk up a typically bland salad. Id definitely order it again. A delicious blend and nothing overpowered the other. But the GCCB with their "Hops sauce" was as wonderful as I remembered it. The meat was cooked just as I'd ordered it... medium rare/well...Not overcooked. The meat was Not a frozen patty but made to order. My fabulous GCCB and beer meal came to $19.00 plus tax and it was soooo worth it. The servers, Karina and Kate, got my order perfect and the service was great. There was a nice afternoon crowd growing and I could tell that a lot were regulars. They have a very good menu and I'll try something new next time. The atmosphere and decor were wonderful with lots of carved wood so it's a very comfortable place to come. There's a nice large outdoor eating area PLUS this restaurant is DOG FRIENDLY!!! They have water bowls for your BFFs. Forget the fast food drive thrus and come here.

    This is the back patio

    Ken Wimmer's beer is as unique as the adobe church building where it is served. Hops has three patios, one is east facing with a great view of the Bosque and the Sandia Mountains. The two others welcome customers on the front, west facing side. Back to the beer. Tipsy Cow, Dad Joke, Hop Hill and Irish Tan are all a good menu too. Apps and entrees are familiar with a nice twist. Exhibit A: Pub-B-Q. ... One more thing on the location. You can drive or (if in Los Ranchos) take a walk along the Chamizal Lateral (acequia) and sneak in the back entrance!

    Fiesta burger with bacon and fried egg!

    The brewery is a gem in the middle of Los Ranchos. The building and atmosphere of the place is uniquely Albuquerque. Right away a server welcomed me in I sat at the bar and ordered the honey wheat locally brewed beer and the fiesta burger I added bacon and and fried egg on top. Let me tell you it was the most delicious burger I've ever had. Highly recommend this place!

    This one is a hidden gem! I didn't know this was a place until a friend of mine invited me over for lunch. They have a dog park!!! Their patio seating is an off-leash dog park. That is such a neat idea! The green chile cheese burger I ordered was massive. And made me full pretty quickly. I'm not much of a drinker, but I enjoyed trying the flights with a friend. The dog park was such a fun vibe but the inside was very nice as well.

    Mmmmmmm!

    Great beer, great food, excellent staff! This was a nice find I will be back! And the place is very beautiful inside. Bathroom for spotless!

    Cool little place off the beaten path

    Queso and chips did not disappoint, green chili cheeseburger was delicious, simple and good, as for inside it almost looks like an old church vibe with stained glass windows, wait staff is very nice and attentive. Oh and yes the beer is good, we had a porter and an ipa both very nice.

    This out of the way brewery serves some solid food to accompany their solid beer offerings…read more There are two wings to the building. One is the darker bar area but we were seated in a room full of full length windows that opened. I had a flight of their beers and enjoyed them all. For lunch I had their red chile bbq pork sandwich while my wife had the enchiladas. The food is a mix of Southern soul food and New Mexican standards. My wife actually preferred her food here over the well regarded New Mexican restaurant we went the previous day. I really liked my sandwich with its kiss of heat.

    WHAT NO RIBS!?!? I'd seen the tv commercials lately about Nexis and boasting about their RIBS so…read morewe came to eat some. But, to our surprise this Nexis does NOT have ribs! Only the other one in the South Valley (where we never go) has them. The tv commercials didn't say that. I did let the servers know this bc I felt it was false advertising. We got a Flight of 4 different beers and "settled" on a fried fish w salad which was ok and their grilled catfish tacos which you had to eat w a fork bc they were too messy to pick up w your fingers.. They tasted ok but the salsa and a pink sauce (?) helped to give them more flavor. The atmosphere was ok and the Friday evening crowd was arriving. We ate inside and our server, Sophia, was very good. It didn't take long to get our dinners except my partner's salad took forever! The salads are included w the meals. My salad was different and good which was a Blackeye pea, corn, & more ingredients. My experience there was disappointing since I wanted ribs and not "soggy" fish tacos. I might go back for the beer only.
