Tacos and beer. Beer and tacos. It doesn’t matter the order — it’s a combination some folks dream about (I know I’m not alone on this). 

Button Brew House is hosting the inaugural Taco Takedown on Saturday, April 20 from 2 – 5 p.m. at 6800 N. Camino Martin #160. This is the first-ever event of its kind at the Marana brewery, too, which is nearly always hosting events at the taproom. 

At the Taco Takedown, there will be a first, second, and third place “Judge’s Winners” and a “People’s Choice” award that everyone else who’s attending can vote on.

The “Judges Winners” will be determined by a panel of three judges — Todd Button of Button Brew House, Terry Kyte of Bisbee Breakfast Club, and Gabe Ceniceros of The Blacktop Grill. The “People’s Choice” award will be determined by the total amount of votes counted from the ticket holders (you). 

There are only 50 tickets available for this event! Therefore, don’t dilly-dally for too long before you purchase your tickets, which are $30 per person. Your ticket grants you six tacos and the opportunity to vote!
