They grow up so fast.

West Tucson’s Dragoon Brewing Company is celebrating its five year anniversary with one of their most extravagant events to date from noon – 10 p.m. on Saturday, April 29.

Dragoon’s parking lot will transform into an entertainment area with live music, food, and more.

Five years also means Dragoon made five different collaboration beers for the event: Historic Brewing Company whiskey barrel-aged porter, Pueblo Vida Brewing Company kellerpils, Lumberyard Brewing Company kölsch, Four Peaks Brewing Co. cedar IPL, and Ten Fifty-Five Brewing English pale ale.

Food begins with lunch from The Blacktop Grill noon – 4 p.m. Afterwards from 4 – 9 p.m., the superchef pop-up restaurant will open featuring Casino Del Sol Resort executive chef Ryan Clark, Reilly Craft Pizza & Drink executive chef Tyler Fenton, Loews Ventana Canyon Resort executive chef Ken Harvey, the Parish executive chef  Travis Peters, and Pasco Kitchen & Lounge/Red’s Smokehouse + Taproom executive chef Ramiro Scavo.

Music will be provided by KXCI Community Radio from 1 – 3 p.m., Tom Walbank from 3 – 6 p.m., and Wooden Tooth Records 6 – 9:30 p.m.

Additionally Dragoon will offer a limited amount of new merchandise for sale. CREAM Design and Print will also be outside from 6 – 9 p.m. to live screen print items.

Dragoon is also encouraging responsible driving by offering half-off the first beer for guests who use a rideshare like Uber or Lyft, call a taxi, or ride their bike.

Bicyclists will also benefit from bike racks and valet bike parking courtesy of Living Streets Alliance from 6 – 10.p.m. Additionally, Transit Cycles will lead group ride to the event at 5 p.m.

Cafe Francais, the French bakery known for its scratch-made croissants and kouign-amann, is closing for good. Owners Noelle and Daniel Martinez announced the closure on Instagram Wednesday afternoon, ending a seven-year run that began on Tucson’s east side.

“Thank you, Tucson, for one hell of a crazy, amazing, and sometimes terrible 7-year ride. We’ve truly loved it all, the good, the bad, and the difficult.”
