CLOSEST TO THE PIN

Local craft breweries located less than a mile from the nearest golf course, according to Google Maps. 

Longbow Golf Club & Goldwater Longbow Taproom (Mesa)
Distance: 0.6 miles (2 minutes)
Even if your round isn’t dynamite, your IPA can be! Goldwater’s pilsners and lagers hit the spot after a toasty summer round in the desert, and a Machine Gun Teddy Brown Ale or Flannel Buddies imperial stout will warm you up in the wintertime.

Eagle Mountain Golf Club & Bone Haus Brewing (Fountain Hills)
Distance: 0.3 miles (1 minute)
The legend of Hans Van Biermann is alive and well at this craft beer outpost in Fountain Hills, where you’ll find decor of coffins, skeletons and relics of Arizona’s mining past. Sip on a Desert Distortion New England IPA or the Carbide Light blonde ale and let the skull on the wall make you forget about that shot you skulled on the first tee box.

Kokopelli Golf Club & Arizona Wilderness Brewing (Gilbert)
Distance: 0.9 miles (3 minutes)
Seeking refuge on this Gilbert golf course might earn you a penalty stroke – not so much at Arizona Wilderness. In fact, Refuge IPA is one of the many tasty treats you’ll find on the extensive tap list at this award-winning brewery. La Ciudad Hazy IPA and West Coast Clear IPA are both ACBA medal-winners, but Wilderness’ true specialty is in wild, funky styles such as sours, saisons and farmhouse ales, along with a food menu that might be the best brewpub grub in the Valley.

Wigwam Golf Club & Transplant City Beer Co. (Litchfield Park)
Distance: 0.3 miles (1 minute)
Outside one of the oldest and most-established golf courses in Arizona (Wigwam was built in 1965) sits near one of the newest under-the-radar breweries in the West Valley. TCBC schedules regular food trucks and has creatively named beers on tap such as Cake Me Home Tonight and Two and a Hef Men.

San Marcos Golf Course & LOOK Brewing (Chandler)
Distance: 0.3 miles (2 minutes) 

Instead of spending five minutes looking for your hooked tee shot in the mature woods of San Marcos GC, take two minutes to get over to LOOK Brewing, inside the LOOK Dine-In Cinemas in Downtown Chandler. This location is the only one in the country brewing its own beer on site, and head brewer Marisa Bernal is winning ACBA medals for her work. Try one of the many cinematically named beers on tap such as Me So Harry, Strange Brew or Angry Elf. In the words of Hannibal Lecter: That Marisa is a clever girl!

Bonus beers: San Tan Brewing, Pedal Haus Brewery and The Perch are all within the same area of Downtown Chandler and walkable if there aren’t LOOK showtimes to your liking. 

ON THE FRINGE

Breweries located 1-2 miles from the nearest golf course. 

Superstition Springs Golf Club & BJ’s Restaurant and Brewhouse (Mesa)
Distance: 1 mile (4 minutes)
While the Pizookie is par for the course for anyone dining at BJ’s, craft beer has been flowing from the taps since 1996, and the chain is known locally for helping advance the careers of brewers Doc and Melissa Osborne (Pedal Haus and Four Peaks, respectively).

Bonus beer: Lochiel Brewing is 1.7 miles away if you’re in the mood for a Scottish-style beer made from a 300-year-old recipe. 

Greenfield Lakes Golf Course & Four Silos Craft Coffee and Beer (Gilbert)
Distance: 1.9 miles (5 minutes)
Four Silos comes in handy early for those morning golfers who need to bring a breakfast sammie and a coffee to the first tee box. It doubles as a cozy, post-round hangout in the afternoon or evening for pizzas, burgers and small plates alongside its lineup of craft beers on tap.

Paradise Valley Golf Course & Kitsune Brewing Co. (Phoenix)
Distance: 1.7 miles (5 minutes) 

Barring any slow play, PVGC shouldn’t take too long to conquer. That’s good because the beer at Kitsune is worth spending far more time enjoying than a good walk spoiled. Owner and Great 48 Class of 2023 inductee Tyler Smith is the friendliest guy in the biz and the mastermind behind Kitsune’s dank IPAs and colorful sours.

TPC Scottsdale & State 48 Lager House (Scottsdale)
Distance: 1.6 miles (6 minutes) 

Many local fans enjoy the raucous atmosphere of the Phoenix Open’s 16th hole, but we prefer the calm relaxation of a 16–ouncer. A wide range of food options complement the award-winning beers on tap. Try the ACBA medal–winning Oktoberfest called Dirty Dirndl.

Bonus Beer: O.H.S.O. Brewery + Distillery is across the street serving up small batch beers, food and its own line of locally distilled spirits. 

Stonecreek Golf Club & O.H.S.O. Brewery (Paradise Valley)
Distance: 1.2 miles (3 minutes) 

The course is challenging enough. Deciding what to drink after shouldn’t be. Make the call for a Boom Dynamite or a Popcycle Blonde at the Paradise Valley location of this local craft brewing fave. Whether it’s the beers, the food or the dog-friendly patio, O.H.S.O. specializes in good vibes.
