Tucson, AZ (January 23, 2025) --Presented by Rio Nuevo and produced by Tucson Foodie with support from Borderlands Brewing Co, Finley Distributing and Tap + Bottle, the 5th Annual Tucson Craft Beer Festival will take place on Saturday, February 22 from 1 to 6pm. It’s the best way to explore the many outstanding locally crafted brews in one tasty afternoon.
“Rio Nuevo is excited to support the Tucson Craft Beer Crawl again this year. We love events that bring people together to explore the heart of downtown, discover our amazing venues, and support local businesses. It’s a ton of fun in our amazing downtown!” said Rio Nuevo Board Member Edmund Marquez
Last year’s event drew over 1300 beer lovers from all over the state. With an even broader range of options this year, more tasting venues, additional live music, more food options and an extra hour to explore and enjoy, the Tucson Craft Beer Crawl kicks off a great new year of Tucson Foodie events.
Shane Reiser, Publisher of Tucson Foodie is pleased to see this event grow "As the organizer of the Tucson Craft Beer Crawl, I’m thrilled to see this event continue to grow and evolve. This year, we’re introducing exciting new venues, extending the crawl by an hour, and showcasing even more of the incredible talent that makes Tucson’s craft beer scene so dynamic. Beyond just being a day of great beer and good vibes, the crawl plays a significant role in supporting local businesses and contributing to Tucson’s economy."
Es Teran, owner of Borderlands Brewing is thrilled to be a supporting sponsor and primary venue once again for the Tucson Craft Beer Crawl. “We’re equally excited to introduce our new concept, Sonoran Moonshine, as part of the crawl this year. Events like this are vital for showcasing the incredible talent and creativity within our local craft beer community. It's not just about enjoying great beer—it’s about coming together to support the artisans who make Tucson's beer scene so vibrant."
