Lagunitas and Zinburger Team Up for July Beer Dinners

Jul 3, 20141 min read

On Tuesday July 8th and July 15th, Zinburger will team up with Lagunitas Brewing to offer two four-course dinners, pairing award-winning fare with unique California crafted brews. A rep from the brewery will be on tap to walk guests through the pairings for each course on the menu, which looks something like this:

  • Onion Rings, paired with Lagunitas Pils Czech Style Pilsner
  • The Farm Salad, paired with Lagunitas Daytime Fractional IPA
  • Zinburger Slider and Chuck Norris Slider, paired with Lagunitas IPA
  • Stout Cake, paired with Lagunitas Censored Rich Copper Ale

Zinburger’s mid-town location, 6390 E. Grant Rd., will host the dinner on July 8th and the eatery’s north-side location, 1865 E. River Rd., will serve as destination for the July 15th dinner. Both events will begin at 6 pm and cost $35 per person.

Zinburger centers on an American staple, gourmet burgers and handpicked wine. For more info visit www.foxrc.com.

When @ginzatucson opened in 2008, it became the first restaurant in Tucson to feature an izakaya style menu, bringing Japan’s popular shareable dining experience to the city. Today, it’s still the only restaurant in town with a dedicated izakaya menu, along with one of Tucson’s largest curated selections of sake, Japanese beer, and shochu.

In 2018, the couple expanded again with @raijinramen, Tucson’s first restaurant dedicated entirely to ramen. Known for its rich tonkotsu broths and seasonal specialties, Raijin helped pave the way for the city’s growing ramen scene.

From fresh fish flown in daily from Japan and California to chef’s choice omakase experiences, Ginza continues to showcase authentic Japanese cuisine while Jun and Diana regularly travel to Japan to bring back the latest culinary trends.

📍 Ginza Sushi & Izakaya: 5425 N. Kolb Rd.
📍 Raijin Ramen: 2955 E. Speedway Blvd.
