As breweries nationwide and around the world wrestle with high-profile issues of gender disparity, Gilbert will welcome a new female-owned craft beer bar this summer.

Tap Dragon Craft Beer & Wine Bar is scheduled to open on the southeast corner of Gilbert and Warner in August.

First-time bar owner Jennifer Gallego is well aware of what women face in the male-dominated industry.

“As a woman in the industry, I know the feeling of intimidation when you walk into a bar or brewery,” she says. ‘‘It’s kind of a man’s world, and I’m excited to help change that.”

Tap Dragon will offer 32 craft beers on tap and 15 rotating wines at an indoor-outdoor bar with a dog-friendly patio. Customers also will be able to mix and match their own four-packs of beer to-go.

“I’m hoping to become the Cheers of the neighborhood, and people from all walks of life are welcome,” she says.
