OUR Story

In 1996, we opened our original location at 1814 Second Street, where we still operate our very busy 10BBl brewhouse.  It was a modest beginning with some obstacles, but enthusiasm prevailed and thanks to the support of our loyal customers, it was a success! Our original location is also a busy restaurant and local watering hole, featuring a full menu and 9 rotating Second Street beers on tap.

In 2010, we opened our second location next to the Santa Fe Farmer’s Market in the Railyard District. The Railyard area is a busy arts and entertainment district, where you can find a different show, market or exhibit every day of the week. Our Railyard taproom has a full menu, patio and a rotating selection of beers on draft.

The Rufina Taproom, established in 2017,  is our third location in Santa Fe and it marks a major expansion for our company. Located in a unique and rapidly evolving area formerly considered Santa Fe’s “Heavy industrial” zone where you can still have your car repaired and recycle your scrap metal, it is also a thriving art district with theatres, music venues and Meow Wolf’s ever evolving art installation.

2920 Rufina also houses our new 20bbl/three vessel production brewery and packaging facility. Our goal in this taproom is to bring together the spirit of Second Street and our new neighborhood; An ever changing rotation of our unique beers, featured beer from other New Mexico breweries, unique food, friendly service, and curated live music featuring local and national artists.  

In 2018 we started packaging and distributing Second Street beer statewide. You can now enjoy Santa Fe’s favorite beer on draft in restaurants and bars, and in cans from your favorite local store.
