Helluva Brewing Company is a neighborhood staple that fosters a fun, welcoming environment while also serving up in-house brews and excellent food. The menu boasts a wide selection of shareable dishes, custom burgers and beer-infused foods highlighting the brewery's wide array of drinks.
Helluva offers 18 to 20 beers on tap, six of which are flagship beers with the rest being seasonal beers that change out regularly. You can even sign up to receive text alerts that they send out whenever they drop new drinks.
"I want to get my guests to experience a feeling of togetherness," Owner Shawn Shepard said. "And an experience of having good food and good beer."
"Check, Please! Arizona" guest Natalie Gentry's go-to order is the bourbon barbecue burger, served with a peach-ale infused sauce and handmade fries. "It's a classic barbecue burger," Gentry said. "I love to dip the fries in their garlic aioli sauce." The classic flavors are present in all of their dishes, and their smoked wings are particularly popular and are served with housemade sauces.
The industrial-themed modern decor complements the brewery, which impressed guests with the extensive selection and intentionally designed brews. Gentry's pro tip: Order the garlic aioli sauce with your fries, and engage with the outstanding service.
