The New Mexico Brewers Guild will hold its second annual Dia de la Cerveza in Las Cruces on Sunday. (Courtesy of the New Mexico Brewers Guild) Southern New Mexico might not have the brewery representation of central and northern parts of the state so a number of popular breweries are taking their craft beers to Las Cruces on Sunday as part of the second annual Dia de la Cerveza. About a dozen New Mexico breweries will take over the citys Main Street located in the central part of downtown Las Cruces. Main Street is beautiful, New Mexico Brewers Guild director Chris Goblet said. It was completely renovated in 2010 so its got great trees and really nice covered spaces and its also at the heart of the community. The participating breweries are Abbey Brewing Company, Bosque Brewing Co., Comanche Creek Brewing Co., High Desert Brewing Co., La Cumbre Brewing Co., Little Toad Brewery & Distillery, Santa Fe Brewing Co., Second Street Brewery, Taos Mesa Brewing, Tractor Brewing Co., and Turtle Mountain Brewing Co. This is the first New Mexico Brewers Guild event for Comanche Creek from Eagles Nest.

Information, visit nmbeer.org (Comanche Creek and Taos Mesa are) taking beer that you could never find in Las Cruces, Goblet said. The most northern (breweries) are going to the most southern most part of the state. Eventgoers will receive a commemorative Dia de la Cerveza glass for sampling and purchasing beer from the participating breweries. Food trucks also will be at the event to help curb appetites. Two bands, Latin Funktion from Las Cruces and Radio La Chusma from El Paso will entertain the festival crowd. In New Mexico every day is Dia del la Cerveza, Goblet said. Its always a good day to drink beer in New Mexico. We take this event to celebrate the culture and tie it in with the Dia de los Muertos theme We just love Cruces.
