The location--right of the highway--can be a little off-putting. But get over that 'cause it's a great scene. The brewery is part of the "Green Jeans Farmery" which is a bunch of local food and drink establishments in an indoor/outdoor plaza constructed entirely with repurposed shipping containers.

Parks & Nature
There are a _lot_ of ways to experience the Sandias; find a way to do something up there. It's a magical place. Hiking La Luz is a good choice, if it's not too hot out and you're a strong hiker. There are many, many other hiking and biking options, and taking the Tram to the top is fun. (The food at the top isn't great, but the views make up for it.)
