La Cumbre Brewing is an independent brewery from Albuquerque, New Mexico, founded in 2010 by Jeff and Laura Erway with the vision of combining technical precision and a deep passion for the craft. Jeff honed his skills through the American Brewers Guild and gained professional experience at Chama River Brewing before launching his own venture, while Laura took on a vital role in operations and brand development. The brewery began modestly, with long hours and personal sacrifice, but quickly earned the trust of the local community and built a strong reputation for consistent quality and innovative practices. Their Albuquerque taproom, designed with an industrial feel softened by warm details, creates a welcoming space that celebrates community and beer culture.
