The Journey: From Taproom to Restaurant
The Catalyst Crafted Ales Legacy
Since its inception, Catalyst Crafted Ales has earned acclaim for its dedication to the artistry of brewing. Anchored in a philosophy that prioritizes creativity and quality, the brewery has become a cornerstone of Tempe’s craft beer culture. Catalyst has become an industry leader, thanks to their unique tastes and relentless drive for perfection, which have also attracted a dedicated following.
The Vision Behind The Restaurant
The transformation from taproom to restaurant came from a wish to provide a complete experience where food and beer come together ideally. The team at Catalyst saw a room that honors the artistry of matching craft beers with an interesting menu. This ambitious project emphasizes their goal of creating not just drinks but occasions that unite people and form a community. Curious about what’s on the menu? Let’s dive into a culinary exploration that brings together communities.
Signature Dishes
Catalyst's restaurant menu exhibits its culinary creativity, as it offers meals that appeal to many tastes but highlights strong, locally inspired flavors. Highlights include the Southwest Burger, a sophisticated version of comfort cuisine with spicy elements, as well the Carne Asada Tacos, a work of soft meat wrapped in homemade tortillas. Spice enthusiasts definitely should try the Guajillo Hot Wings, which deliver a peppery explosion of taste that ideally complements Catalyst's crisp IPAs. From hazy IPA to Italian pilsner to Belgian strong dark ale, Catalyst Crafted Ales has found that its biggest strength is in its range.
Equally appealing is the weekend brunch selection, which includes chilaquiles, a lively dish made of layers of tortillas, salsa, and eggs, and rich French toast with a unique beer-infused syrup that characterizes Catalyst's creative culinary spirit.

Food & Beer Pairings
Catalyst has become an artist in matching a drink with a meal. Picture enjoying the smoky heat of the Guajillo Hot Wings next to their refreshing IPA, where the citrus tones of the beer cut through the spice with precision. The maltiness of an amber ale accentuates the strong tastes of the Southwest Burger and balances the spiciness. By means of these deliberate yet thoughtful pairings, the taste of every meal is elevated, therefore producing an experience more than the sum of its parts.
