Thunder Canyon Brewery
This used to be my 'every Thursday night out with the guys from
work' place when I lived in Tucson. They always have about eight
types of beer available and the types vary from time to time. I
like the IPA, stout and porter. |

Gentle Ben's Brewery Company
Just next to the University of Arizona entrance. A great place
to enjoy a beer and watch the girls go by. The food is good as
is the wide selection of beers.

Nimbus Brewing Company
Nimbus has renovated their brewpub since I wrote "More of a brewery than a brewpub. Their beers are sold in stores
that sell beer. They do have a bar section in a warehouse type
building. No two pieces of furniture match each other." They are
now a nice brewpub with a good bar and matching furniture. The
production area, including a small bottling line is visible at
the back of the pub.

That's a
huge plate of nachos for only five dollars! |

BJ's Brewhouse
Nice bar and restaurant. They do not brew the beer here; it's made in
Chandler, Arizona and brought in fresh weekly. Their stout contains 8.3%
ABV.

The four rightmost taps are dispensed from 300 liter tanks. The
rest are dispensed from kegs. I tried the Piranha Pale Ale which
was very good and hoppy and satisfied my desire for an IPA
(which they don't have) and
the Stout which was too sweet and strong for my taste. |
