    Fuzzbot Brewing Co

    Phoenix, Arizona, United States

    Fuzzbot started as a clothing company for skateboarding and snowboarding. We also had a passion for creating beer as well. We pivoted operations to start a brewery. Owner Scott Searles AKA HopheadFred was working in the beer industry and had worked for 3 of the top 10 breweries in the U.S. he was able to see where large breweries were failing. He also saw the troubles with startup breweries. He embarked on a crazy journey of brewing the beer, selling the beer and distributing the beer. The steps to accomplish this was far from easy but his fierce tenacity paid off. While not the most conventional way to operate it is a passion driven project. In a way it’s a modern day do it yourself operation much like how craft breweries get started.

    Greenwood Brewing

    Phoenix, Arizona, United States

    Greenwood Brewing is a woman-owned brewing company where we believe in the power of the purposeful pint. In an industry largely dominated by men, women sometimes feel intimidated or underrepresented in the craft beer scene. And while our Greenwood Brewing handcrafted ales are for everyone to enjoy, our goal is to create approachable craft beer to allow women to feel welcome in this industry. Because we believe that beer isn’t just tasty, but it is an avenue for powerful conversations and positive changes that often begin over a cold one with a friend. We want that friend to be both men and women. Welcome to Greenwood brewing, we look forward to sharing a brew with you. We promise it will be an experience to remember.

    Uncle Bear’s Brewery, Taproom & Yard

    Phoenix, Arizona, United States

    Well he was a fun loving good fella, of the Labrador mix named β€œBear”. In the good ole’ days as a young pup, he could be found cruising the college campus at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, body surfin’ at Doggie Beach in Ocean Beach (San Diego), skiing down the snow capped mountains in Ruidoso, New Mexico, relaxing in the Hot Springs of Arkansas and finally making his home in the Valley of the Sun. Since Bear was an active dog and on the go, he wanted to create a place where he and his friends could β€œCome, Sit And Stay”. Well Uncle Bears’ Brewery is that place. Born out of Bear’s love for craft beer and excellent food, we have created an upbeat, fun atmosphere where friends, family and co-workers can come to enjoy a variety of delicious menu selections & NOW our own locally brewed craft beer. The Uncle Bear’s Brewhouse opened in 2013, as well as the 4 Grill and Bar locations were re-branded to the Grill and Tap concept that same year. On the menu, whenever you see Bear’s paw print you can be assured the item is a long-term house favorite or a new favorite we are sure Bear would have loved. Try any one of the items from the β€œFamous” Sliders, Backyard Burgers and Birds, Big Plates and Serious Sizzles, Gourmet Pizza, Bear β€œBites” or Wing selections and you are in for a true treat. The unique motif has been designed to resemble all of the places Bear or your family dog would hang out such as the garage, backyard or home.
