Brewing Since
1996
Sierra Blanca Brewing Company was founded in 1996, making us one of New Mexico's original craft breweries. Located in Moriarty, NM — along historic Route 66 — we've been crafting quality ales and lagers at 6,200 feet elevation for nearly three decades.
Our alien-themed branding pays homage to nearby Roswell and the rich UFO lore of New Mexico. From our flagship Alien IPA to our handcrafted Way 2 Cool sodas, every beverage is brewed with pride in the Land of Enchantment.
We also operate the Rio Grande Grill & Tap Room in Ruidoso and offer co-packing services for other craft beverage brands.
