After a quick jaunt out to Wave Cave in the Superstitions, some friends and I felt that was a little too tame and headed out to a TRUE wilderness excursion -- AZ Wilderness Brewing excursion, that is!
It's a pretty neat brewery with plenty of outdoor seating (and heating -- it was a bit nippy for sure) on either side of an indoor (but very open-feeling) area with a bar. They've got a pretty appropriate cabin-decor vibe going on.
We were promptly helped by one of the cute waitresses -- I got their pecan pie brown ale and was about to go with the poutine fries but really wanted to drive some meat into me so opted for the pulled pork fries instead. Gotta say, can't go wrong with the fries. A friend got one of the burgers, and that thing looked juuuuuicy.
Basically, if you're in the mood for some good beer and burger/fries and ALSO want to feel like you got to enjoy the great Arizona outdoors, throw on a flannel and some wool socks and get over to AZ Wilderness Brewing!
