Pedal Haus Brewery opening in downtown Phoenix? Not exactly

Perhaps this helps explain the abrupt closure and expansion of Pedal Haus Brewery in Tempe:

The Phoenix Business Journal reports Pedal Haus owner Julian Wright has agreed to introduce a 24-tap self-serve craft beer wall for a beer garden at The Park, scheduled to open this summer in downtown Phoenix.

The Park, which takes over the old Stoudemire’s space in the Collier Center, is an 11,000-square-foot concept featuring a rotating selection of food trucks and caterers, a craft beer garden, and a live-music stage.

Basically, it’s an indoor food-truck court with picnic tables, yard games, and artificial trees to create a backyard atmosphere.

The Park recently announced Paradise Valley Burger Company, which was featured on the Food Network’s ‘‘Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives,’’ also would be joining the concept.
