The new taproom will mainly focus on Huss Brewing’s locally crafted, award-winning beers, including, the 2016 U.S. Open Medal winner Scottsdale Blonde, and multi-medal award winning Husstler Milk Stout. The brewery also plans on releasing new, unique recipes brewed specifically for the Phoenix location, and it will have a kitchen offering light snacks too.

“I think it’s cool that we can have some beers only available at the Tempe Taproom, and now have unique selection(s) at the Uptown Taproom,” said Jeff Huss, owner and brewmaster.

Huss Brewing at Uptown Plaza will be joining both local & national renowned restaurants at the newly revitalized Uptown Plaza in Central Phoenix. Uptown Plaza is managed by Vintage Partners, the Arizona-based commercial real estate development and Investment Company. Vintage Partners recently completed its 20-month-long restoration and revitalization efforts at Uptown Plaza, it was originally built in 1955. Today, it stands as Central Phoenix’s hotspot for a communal, stylish and tasty dining & shopping experience.

Huss Brewing at Uptown Plaza will be located directly across the courtyard from the renowned Chicago pizzeria, Lou Malnati’s, joining the multitude of great restaurants in the complex’s area. Popular establishments such as Shake Shack, Flower Child and AJ’s Fine Foods are just a few of the great offerings of local restaurants within walking distance.

“Just like our Tempe Taproom. We wanted to create a comfortable space where people can relax, enjoy our beers and enjoy food from a multitude of area restaurants,” said owner Leah Huss.  “It’s almost like relaxing at home and ordering delivery!”

This new north-central Phoenix location will give Huss Brewing an opportunity to showcase its beers to consumers in a whole new area of the Valley that is growing rapidly. Huss hired DUO Design, based in Phoenix, as the lead firm to oversee all aspects of bringing Huss Brewing at Uptown Plaza to life. The location was appealing not just because of the vibrant community, but the historic Uptown Plaza’s retro architecture really appealed to the Huss brand, which embraces quality and classic simplicity.

“Opening a neighborhood spot where people can relax and enjoy one of our beers and pick up a six-pack or growler to take home is a huge plus!” said Jeff Huss.

In addition to the award-winning beers that will be offered at the Phoenix location, expect to see Huss Brewing’s year-round brews including the widely popular, quirky Koffee Kölsch, also Magic in the Ivy Pale Ale, That’ll Do IPA, and seasonal favorites like the Rice Pudding Porter.
