Blue Heron Brewing Company

We enjoyed a lovely lunch on our way to Taos--it was better than the time we spent in Taos, to be honest! Pizza, beer and service were all great!

Amazing experience at Blue Heron Brewing! We had the raspberry beer, a beer flight & a glass of wine between us, along with an awesome "Pat's Pizza". The service couldn't have been any better too! Five stars!

Cute little place. We got 2 pizzas as takeout. We are an hour away so of course they were cold when we got home. Just a quick few minutes in the oven and the pies were delicious. The sauce is perfect and the bread is really delicious. The best pizza bones I've had. And the cheese cake is amazing. Very creamy. We will have takeout again soon.

Nathan gave us great service! We tasted several wines, and purchased the Rio Embudo red. We had Mediterranean pizza, everything was good!

This small brewing company is along the Rio Grande between Velarde and Taos. If you blink while driving, you'll miss this establishment. My wife and I stopped in on Sunday, August 22, 2021. Luckily, they were open and my wife and I were greeted by a liberally tattooed female bartender with a giant smile. She looked happy to see us and the place had not another soul inside. We sampled the Highside Hefeweizen, Lady Bug IPA, and the Tarantula Trek red ale. Unilaterally, we ordered two pints of the Hefeweizen ($5 each). It had beautiful banana notes with a hint of cloves. The Highside went down refreshingly and super smooth. We enjoyed our pints on the outdoor rear patio, under a large sunbrella. This place offers Karaoke on Thursdays from 5-7 pm, Trivia on Fridays from 6-7 pm, and Live Music on Saturdays from 5-7 pm. They also have a refrigerator with four packs of their beer ($13) to go as well as growlers. Of course, we left with a cold four pack of the Highside Hefeweizen.

A last minute decision and a good decision. The beer was good. And the patio vibe was relaxing. Don't let the view from the road detour you- it's worth the stop. Great selection of wines as well.

What a treat! We literally slammed on the brakes and turned into the parking lot, not knowing we were in for the treat of our lives! We did a beer flight and a white wine flight. LOVED the beers! ALL OF THEM! Our guy who took care of us, was the best! He told us the story of Lol Llorana... the best! We will be back if ever in Santa Fe area againUpdate to this review: I just watched the movie The Curse of La Llarona, the bartender at Blue Heron Brewing company told the story much better and scarier!

Not dog friendly. Bringing our dogs was one of the main reasons for coming here. We were turned away and it didn't even seem busy. We were very welcome at Vivac down the road. We won't be coming back here again.

Beer didn't stand out, but it also could have been my choices. What did stand out was that for two regular pints it was $16.00. Seems way pricey for the middle of no where location without a view. With a tip almost 20 dollars for two beers is downtown city prices.

Amazing pizza! Craft beer is delightful and unique. Recommend the beer flight for sure. Staff and owner are so friendly and welcoming. Great atmosphere, especially for a northern New Mexican brewery.
