Review of Tractor Brewing Company - Los Lunas, NM by Tom Ciccateri Tractor Brewing O pen since October 1st 1999 in the growing Albuquerque bedroom community of Los Lunas stands Tractor Brewing Company . At the intersections of Main and Lujan look for the tractor parked on the corner. Physically and contractually attached to Ribs Restaurant, the synergy seems to be working. Fully wheelchair accessible, the medium-sized lounge offers a view across neighboring farmlands of the Manzano Mountains. Abundant windows combine with tan tile floors to make for an open and airy environment, perfect for viewing the classic model tractors and historical farming memorabilia from John Deere, Case, and Allis Chambers that populate the white walls of the room.
Stainless steel tops the hand-made bar and lounge tables, as well as surrounds the mirrored barback.
A corrugated galvanized sheet over the bar protects patrons from unknown falling debris, always a concern in the deserts of New Mexico. From 30 feet overhead a gray iron-beamed ceiling provides solid support. Time, and the winds, will tell if outside attendance is impacted when it comes to fertilizing time on the farms. The rear of the building is where the 15-barrel copper JV Northwest brewhouse stands. After the spent grains leave the Mash Tun they are whisked away by a local farmer for his appreciative bovines.
