Nimbus Brewing - Tuscon


Nimbus Brewing
is located in Tuscon, Arizona in an industrial area. I purchased a case of beer to go since I was on a road trip and collecting beer along the way. The house corned beef was delicious and the sample of Maiboch was right on par the the best.
The brewery is a large spacious place with some pool tables, lots of artwork and a casual atmosphere. They have bands and a loading dock/porch that is open some during the busy times and weekends.
The brewery uses a monkey as their mascot and their images on the taps, bottles, boxes and marketing information are great. A nimbus is halo around an angels head and the connection to the monkey I am not quite sure about. However, this is one if not the best beer mascot I have seen. Next to the Boonville Beer of course (half deer half bear).
They had a large selection of only house beers on tap. Locals and nearby workers seemed to have made this their home base as it is out of the way and not something you stumble upon without looking. A more thorough review can be found here. Too bad I could not spend much time there this time.
