Casa Vieja Event Center

Sadly, this business doesn't provide rental services anymore. They are only a brewery.

I absolutely love thIs little gem. I use the term "little" loosely. The space is huge. There are multiple indoor and outdoor areas but it still manages to feel quaint and intimate. Their beer is brewed on property and they have a pretty sizable variety of local wine. I really liked their Doppelbock. It was smooth and delicious. The color was rich and beautiful and was a great complement to the mild but well-bodied flavor. My husband had the Hoppy Birthday IPA and also enjoyed it. Here's where it gets really weird...he liked that IPA so much that he gave other beers on their list a shot. He VERY RARELY ventures out of IPA world. He was so blown away by the quality of the brew that he wanted to actually taste the others. He ended up with the Ghost Stout. It was also a beautiful color and tasted amazing!!The folks there were so genuine and welcoming and weren't overbearing. It felt natural and comfortable. The grounds and structure were gorgeous. When you're thinking of heading to enjoy a brew in Corrales you absolutely MUST give this place a shot. You can bring your own food as well. Come support a small family-run brewery.

Our first visit was yesterday... and yes, it was that good, that we came back the next day!This small business and small brewer won our hearts and palates over! Ample parking opens to a beautiful adobe structure that stirs memories of warm fireplaces and biscochitos, but what's found is even better: warm conversation with friendly business owners and their family/staff, fantastic beer (3 of their own on tap now plus a few other local phenoms), and wonderful bites from ABQ BBQ. Our favorites? All of them! Gold Medal Héfe, a fortunate accident, we learned today, during our Art of Beer Making class, is mouth-wateringly delicious and my personal favorite. The Duke's Red Ale, slightly hoppier, but just the right amount, fondly named for the secret painting found, and restored, in the wall's of Casa Vieja (see my photos), and the Loma Lager! Loma Lager, could you get any more cheesy and creative? The perfect pizza beer, reminiscent of a beer that rhymes with "sud light". This small brewer even serves some wonderful local wine for your friend that prefers an alternative to beer. ABQ BBQ adds the perfect touch to your 3-drink limit with mouth watering options like yesterday's Frito pie, tacos, and sliders or today's lasagna, bratwurst, butternut squash soup, and pie! Who knows what will be on the menu tomorrow? That's the best part. What a wonderful addition to our eclectic Corrales. The native burqueños that own this beautiful establishment have made this fantastic part of the neighborhood even better. What are you waiting for? Come to Corrales and check it out for yourself!

Casa Vieja is a beautiful place to host big parties and other large events. On the evening we visited we just stopped to check the location but were surprised by an excellent BBQ food truck. Inside they have a nice bar with cocktails and good home beer. We ate our food and beer at their beautiful patio in which they host live music. I truly enjoyed me evening here and is worth checking it out.

Their patio area is huge and their beers are great!! I've gone twice now with my husband and heard some good live music and got to enjoy food from food trucks, and the staff are so friendly! Definitely a hidden gem!!

It's a great venue for music. We were disappointed to find out that they charge $3 for a taster of beer. It's about half of the charge if a full beer. Most places do not charge for a taster.
