Craft beers have taken off in Mexico. One local brewery, Monstruo de Agua, has opened a shiny, plant-filled latest taproom in Colonia Condesa. Order a small tasting glass (from 45 pesos) of stout flavored with fig and sugar cane, or possibly a white I.P.A. produced with agave syrup. Accompany your beer with esquite criollo (100 pesos), a complicated tackle a classic corn street snack. In nearby Roma, Meroma’s intimate dining room offers local ingredients accented with unexpected touches, like quail marinated with harissa (dinner for 2 without wine, about 2,000 pesos). And for a taste of the town’s latest wine scene, try Vigneron, a Roma bar and restaurant that spotlights small producers in France, Spain, Mexico and Italy (glasses from 185 pesos).
