Highly recommended! I wasnāt sure what we signed up for, since we know a lot about ABQ beers already. Iād do this tour again in a heartbeat. We laughed and learned and went to new places. We also met great people ā beer people tend to be very chill and interesting, and we enjoyed ourselves immensely.
We loved meeting a brewer and learning about his process before trying his beers. We loved having van rides (gotta be careful out there). We loved getting to the next place with different, equally interesting/different beers, and were sad to get our final stop (our favorite) where we learned some more and laughed and talked and drank really good brewsā¦ it was everything we hoped for. And Gordon was a kind and considerate host, and incredibly knowledgeable. You can tell he was a history teacher. I learned more from him about beer than Iāve ever known before, and he was funny too.
We are local and visit lots of breweries, and this was worth it to us. Even if I was a visitor, Iād want to visit some of Albuquerqueās best parts, and the beer scene really is amazing here. We went to new places, tried new beers, and learned a bunch. But most importantly, we laughed a lot and got out to enjoy our city. Gordonās passion for our local breweries (and for beer in general) make him the perfect host. Loved it.
