Associated Venue: Roses by the Stairs Brewing
Hello! We are an independent craft brewery in downtown Phoenix, on the border of the Roosevelt and Encanto neighborhoods. Our beers explore the boundaries of what it means to be a farmhouse style beer— we include high quality local and seasonal ingredients to create unique, flavorful beers and explore a wide range of styles from funky saisons and sours to modern IPAs and ales.
We are located in the building that was home to beloved Easley’s Fun Shop for over 70 years and are aiming to continue the tradition of a family business with a strong focus on community. Our small foundational team is the beating heart behind the delicious beer and personal connection in our space and we are so thankful for their energy and creativity in these early months.
We opened our doors in May 2022 but we started growing our vision 2 years earlier. Working remotely and isolating indoors, we envisioned a business that would contribute to the community– create connections among our neighbors, highlight artists and small businesses and support local organizations and causes.
Through our beers, we purchase the highest quality ingredients we can find, purchase seasonal fruits and source local grains and malts from local farms that feed our community and demonstrate sustainable practices.
Through our taproom, we look to cultivate an inclusive space that is welcoming to everyone, creating connection through our very varied interests. We seek out high quality non-alcoholic options so more people feel welcome in our space, and we aim to fill our taproom with personal details, buying small, promoting artists, highlighting local businesses that we admire and hosting live music.
Through our choices, we have committed to donate 1% of our revenue to 1% for the Planet. Additionally, we regularly support local organizations both through monetary donations and by sharing our space and our platform.
We will promote what inspires us and encourage community engagement. Breweries can be about more than just beer and as we grow, we will continually look for ways to realize our vision. So, welcome to our new home at Roses by the Stairs! May you find delicious cold beer, a delightful board game, friendly people and creative inspiration within!!

Sampled from the tap at Lovecraft. Pours a clear yellow gold with a white head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has light straw and grains with a bit of hay underlying. Flavor has light sweet grains and hay with some straw in the finish.

Can pours with a near clear copper gold colored body that supports a white head of foam. The aroma offers up sweet fruity esters, fruity hops and then a bit of yeast character. The taste delivers fairly bright fruitiness and fruity esters backed by a modest bitter spicy hoppiness. To midway it picks up that yeasty note blended into the spicy hops. It does end pretty dry; which is nice. Overall it could be less bright and punchy but rather more subtle and smooth. Good nonetheless.

Aromas are malt, wet grain, caramel, toast, fruit and a bit of solvent. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, loses the solvent and is slightly sweet. Body is a bit chalky and carbonation is okay. A tad heavier than a traditional kolsch.

Aromas are malt, armpit sweat, and onion. Flavors are similar to nose, bittersweet with slightly soft carbonation. Sweet up front with a mildly bitter finish. Really good beer would be even better with crisper carbonation.

Aromas are quality traditional pale lager - bread dough, and grain. Flavors are similar to nose, a little more sweet than bitter with decent carbonation and body. Easy drinking satisfying beer.

Pint can pours with a crystal clear copper colored body that has thin golden hues and supports a white head. The modest aroma offers up tangelo, pineapple, a dash of peach and then a faint berry note. The taste delivers nice hop bitterness amidst a central slick malt sweetness. Like the nose I'm getting citrusy tangelo to tangerine, a bit of pineapple and then a blend of berry, mango and cantaloupe. Pretty nice.
