Tucson Foodie is reporting the northwest side drinking spot, Casa Marana, in a neighborly gesture, has invited Donut Wheel down for a sweet evening of beer pairings from 6 – 9 p.m. on Friday, July 26.

It must have a been a rough time for Donut Wheel before the Ina Road construction project wrapped up, but the doughnut shop was tasty enough to stick around.

Now, if you’ve never eaten anything from Donut Wheel in the past you deserve a fresh “Doh!” from Homer Simpson himself, but this is a perfect time to try one of their many flavors or remind yourself if it’s been a while.

So, grab your favorite pint, perhaps something you’ve never tried before, or even beer you wouldn’t normally drink, and the crew at Casa will pair it with one of the tasty fried rings.

Casa Marana is located at 8225 N. Courtney Page Way, Suite 191, Marana, Arizona . For more information, visit Casa Marana’s Facebook event page.
