Hops Brewery

Since the brewery was a short walk from our AirBnB, we decided to stroll over for a beer before dinner. (Because we only had a beer my review is limited--read other reviews to learn about any food that they serve.)They have a nice patio and plenty of indoor seat at tables or the bar, so even though the parking lot was pretty full, it was not overly crowded despite being fairly busy. The patio area is "dog friendly."The bartender was friendly and promptly poured the beer we selected -- "Hoptoberfest" -- a refreshing German marzen style. Despite the name, beer was lightly, but appropriately hopped, far less than an IPA, so don't let the name scare you away if you don't like hops. I enjoyed my beer and found it to be a good, though not outstanding, example of the "Oktoberfest" style. I'd be interested trying their other beers but I'm only in town for a few more days. Next visit for sure.

Great beer beautiful place. Nice sandwiches. Hophill amazing and stout is smooth. Outside and inside seating

This one is a hidden gem! I didn't know this was a place until a friend of mine invited me over for lunch. They have a dog park!!! Their patio seating is an off-leash dog park. That is such a neat idea! The green chile cheese burger I ordered was massive. And made me full pretty quickly. I'm not much of a drinker, but I enjoyed trying the flights with a friend. The dog park was such a fun vibe but the inside was very nice as well.

In the Village of Los Ranchos - I'd just gotten my hair done at Christens Salon in front and decided to mosey on back to the Hops Brewery restaurant in back. The thought of their Green Chili Cheese Burger was too strong to ignore and the timing was perfect. The server was very helpful in deciding which beer so I decided on the "New Kid" beer which was a very good choice. It complimented the GCCB just right. It also came with a perfect Coleslaw and slice of dill pickle. The Coleslaw was crunchy with a little bit of black pepper and green chili to compliment the burger and perk up a typically bland salad. Id definitely order it again. A delicious blend and nothing overpowered the other. But the GCCB with their "Hops sauce" was as wonderful as I remembered it. The meat was cooked just as I'd ordered it... medium rare/well...Not overcooked. The meat was Not a frozen patty but made to order. My fabulous GCCB and beer meal came to $19.00 plus tax and it was soooo worth it. The servers, Karina and Kate, got my order perfect and the service was great. There was a nice afternoon crowd growing and I could tell that a lot were regulars. They have a very good menu and I'll try something new next time. The atmosphere and decor were wonderful with lots of carved wood so it's a very comfortable place to come. There's a nice large outdoor eating area PLUS this restaurant is DOG FRIENDLY!!! They have water bowls for your BFFs. Forget the fast food drive thrus and come here.

Ken Wimmer's beer is as unique as the adobe church building where it is served. Hops has three patios, one is east facing with a great view of the Bosque and the Sandia Mountains. The two others welcome customers on the front, west facing side. Back to the beer. Tipsy Cow, Dad Joke, Hop Hill and Irish Tan are all a good menu too. Apps and entrees are familiar with a nice twist. Exhibit A: Pub-B-Q. ... One more thing on the location. You can drive or (if in Los Ranchos) take a walk along the Chamizal Lateral (acequia) and sneak in the back entrance!

Had a business meeting here and this was the first time I've ever been here and he Los Ranchos. This place is a hidden gem! The food was absolutely amazing, no joke! Everybody enjoyed the food, and they had a full bar. It was an awesome experience all the way from the atmosphere, friendly staff , to the cleanliness of the place. Spoke to the owner who came by to personally ask if everything was good. What a great conversation and also to learn that they are opening up a second location. We will definitely visit this place again, as well as attend the grand opening of the second location when it arrives. If you're in the area, you need to check this place out!

14 of us came for food / drinks on a Tuesday around 3:30. This location opens at 3 pm. Minimal staff on hand at that time (not uncommon). SUMMARY POINTS:- Staff - Stacey the manager was kind, efficient and accommodating.- Kitchen - same deal - quick and efficient- Venue - lovely place - was a church in the past. The windows wood, and outside patio areas are truly special. - Location - pretty easy to find if you use GPS. The actual building is tucked in and pushed back off of the street. - Food - everyone liked what they got. No complaints, although I have to admit that my hummus plate with the buttered bread was a bit different. - Beer/drink options - Nice variety -- and they change oftenCOMMENT 1: USE THE WALL BOARD TO ORDER BEER. Don't expect the options that are online to be available. The manager will tell you that options change frequently because they are a "true craft beer brewer". Ask your server what is not on the menu / not on the menu.COMMENT 2: While they do not provide individual checks for groups, they will allow each person to pay individually. We love it here and can't wait to come back.

Queso and chips did not disappoint, green chili cheeseburger was delicious, simple and good, as for inside it almost looks like an old church vibe with stained glass windows, wait staff is very nice and attentive. Oh and yes the beer is good, we had a porter and an ipa both very nice.

This place is little gem!! The inside bar is beautiful and the outside patio is too. Food and beer were delicious! Can't wait to come back!

We have come here multiple times just for their sandwiches but today will be the last time we visit. We ordered one of their wine and cider drinks, the prices weren't listed on the menus so we incorrectly assumed they would be ~$10 since it was mostly cider, we had four total. We ordered two sandwiches ($13 each) and a side of salsa to share, we did order the larger size which we again incorrectly assumed it would be ~$5 since an appetizer with chips and salsa was $7. We handed our cards over to pay and were told the total was $49 so we clarified if that was each or total and were told each, we said dang how much were the drinks if the total was $98 and our bartender just repeated how many items we had. We said okay because clearly we weren't going to get more explanation than that. I took an itemized receipt and we were charged for the wrong drinks (shittier show vs shitshow which had an added shot), $14 for the side of salsa and the sandwiches were correct. I called to verify the price of the shit show drink and was told it was $12 and I was told the salsa shouldn't have been $14 and we could come back in to fix it, I told them we couldn't come back right this second and he said that's how they could fix it so I told him I guess we just won't ever come back and he said ok thanks and hung up on me. Overall, we were overcharged $19 if we were charged for the full chips and salsa appetizer rather than just the side of salsa we requested. The prices should be posted and the bartenders should focus on ringing in the correct items.
