Great Scot! 13 Legit Spots for Scones in Tucson

The day is going to be packed with craft beer from local breweries, wines from southern Arizona wineries, a buffet of local farm fresh foods, live entertainment, Casino Del Sol Barrel Selections, and even a casino drink special.

The participating breweries, wineries, and distilleries include Dragoon Brewing Company, Huss Brewing Company, Grand Canyon Brewing Company, Sentinel Peak Brewing Company, SanTan Brewing Company, Keeling Schaefer Vineyards, Arizona Stronghold Vineyards, Arizona Distilling Company, and Canyon Diablo Spirits & Distillery.

The festival is also debuting the new local brew Sol Fest from Dragoon Brewing Company — a golden ale brewed with bright citrusy hops and light malts.

This is a 21 and over event, admission is free, and you have the option to purchase your own food and drinks. Plus, the first 500 people will receive a free gift.

You can expect classic Cajun food out of chef Travis Peters and his crew, like a Crawfish Boil with the traditional fixings, an Alligator Roast that’s wrapped in bacon, an Abita Beer tap takeover, and live music with a mass amount of beads to go all around.

The cover charge is $10 per person, Reservations aren’t needed to get down and party, but it is going to be first come first served.

The evening signals the end of Mardi Gras — which is the biggest day of celebrations —with its classic New Orleans fare, great drinks, and live music.

Kingfisher owners, Jeff Azersky and Jim Murphy, love bringing that perfect amount of New Orleans style to Tucson in their feast. This year’s menu has a few a la carte offerings to choose from, like the classic Gumbo, Red Beans and Rice, and Jambalaya.

There’s going to be traditional drinks, too, such as Hurricanes, Sazeracs, and a selection of Louisiana brews like the Abita Turbodog.

Reservations are strongly suggested (who enjoys waiting to be seated, right?), and can be made by calling (520) 323-7739.
