After less than five years in business, FireTruck Brewing’s location found at 9630 N. Oracle Rd. #110 in Oro Valley has permanently closed, leaving just one location in midtown at Grant and Swan Road.
Earlier this year in March, Firetruck Brewing also closed its east side taproom at 9155 E. Tanque Verde Rd. #177.
“We are very sad with the sudden closure of our Oro Valley restaurant,” said Taylor Carter, current co-owner of FireTruck Brewing and former firefighter. “Over the years, with the help of the Oro Valley and Tucson community, we raised and donated thousands of dollars for local disabled veterans, firefighters, children, and needy families.”
The ownership is now going to focus on the midtown location — the original taproom, where it all began at 4746 E. Grant Rd.
“We will be putting our efforts into our original location and hoping to unveil a new kitchen/menu in mid-October,” Carted added.
Therefore, the midtown location is still open and ready to serve you from 11 a.m. – 8 p.m. on Sunday – Monday, 11 a.m. – 9 p.m. on Tuesday – Thursday, and 11 a.m. – 10 p.m. on Saturday – Sunday.
Also, if you need a job or just want a new gig, the taproom is hiring.
FireTruck Brewing Company is located at 4746 E. Grant Rd. For more information on all of the menus and hours of operation, visit firetruckbrewing.com.Â

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
