My wife and I will be spending a few days in Las Cruces next month. Any ideas on places to visit will be much appreciated. Thanks.

Just got back on Tuesday, hit these Breweries Palmer Brewery & Cider House,Drafty Kilt, Quarter Celtic, Boxing Bear, Dialogue, Bow & Arrow, Starr Brothers, Rio Bravo, Ponderosa, and Nexus. My "ranking"-and please keep in mind the only one I wouldn't go back to is Rio Bravo. Also, please keep in mind breweries on the list are only a fraction apart from one another for the first 4. Also, hit Bosque and Marble-I have been to the breweries and this trip we only hit the Bosque tap room in Nob Hill-also, La Cumbre which is THE place for beer geeks-next time I head back in October I will need to make revisit happen. Also, eat lots of chile and sapodillas. Have a great time! Boxing Bear (IPA's and other full bodied hop bombs) Drafty Kilt (great British line up) Quarter Celtic (solid beers-hard to find place but well worth it) Palmer Brewery and Cider House (good place to hang out and solid beers and cider-plus they distill) Starr Brothers Liked the beer I had, nice view of the mountains. Good food. Dialogue (They are trying some interesting beers-but not there yet-cool lace and great vibe) Bow and Arrow (same here, they are trying some interesting beers but some are a little off the mark) Ponderosa (Beautiful place-beers solid, nothing too adventurous and that is A OK) Nexus (Decent beer-great Should Food) Rio Bravo (party spot?)
