The Week Ahead in Beer: The calm before the fest storm
Warning, it’s kind of a slow week out there. Oh, sure, there’s still some low-key fun to be had at breweries (including some monthly favorites), and plenty of new brews to enjoy, but it still feels like this is the weekend that the craft beer industry takes a deep breath. Why? Because starting next weekend, it seems like every major Oktoberfest-style event is about to happen. There will be the big ones in Ruidoso and Red River, plus of course Santa Fe and Rio Rancho. Cloudcroft has theirs again, and now Truth or Consequences is getting in on the action down south. Up north? Fear not, Angel Fire and Aztec have them on deck, too. Oh, and in Albuquerque there are upcoming ones at La Cumbre, Dripline, and Flock of Moons, to name a few. We guess we’ll have to assemble that big old annual preview of all the fests. So this week, catch up on all the märzens and festbiers that you have missed so far, including some more fresh on tap (see below). Then, get your stein-hoisting arms ready. We’ve got work to do.
