Phoenix’s 10 Best Breweries | Eater Phoenix
"Gilbert’s 12 West Brewing has locations in Barnone (the multi-use complex), Ahwatukee, and right on Main Street in downtown Mesa. Its brewers churn out an impressive and wide-ranging roster of staple beers, headlined by Zona (pilsner), Blap! Blap! (blood orange Belgian wheat beer), and K-LAX (New England-style IPA). Drinkers who enjoy the sour styles so perfect for the withering desert heat are in the right place. Naturally, 12 West has gone deep with mixed fermentations and many yeast strains, concocting brews like the kettle-soured Imaginary Penguin." - Chris Malloy
