FACT: Taking a first sip of a beer on a hot summer day is enjoyable.

FACT #2: Unwrapping and taking a bite of a piping hot tamale is enjoyable.

CONCLUSION: Combining beer with tamales will be doubly enjoyable.

This summer, Tucson Tamale Company is teaming up with local brewers for a series of beer and tamale pairings, beginning June 16 and extending through July 21.

Tucson Tamale Company refines the traditional process of making tamales by adding various flavors and finishing it off with healthful ingredients to redefine the gourmet food item. Their tamales are also naturally gluten free and free of  lard, so plenty of vegetarian and vegan varieties are available.

Here’s how it works. For each scheduled pairing, swing by the brewery or tasting room, purchase a pint or a flight, and you’ll receive sample tamales that pairs perfectly with each beer.

Head down to one of these local breweries to find your favorite brew’s partner in crime.
