25+ Breweries Join This Year’s Baja Beer Festival at Armory Park

Hey, it’s beer time! For the ninth year, the Arizona Craft Brewers Guild is bringing the Baja Beer Festival — a tribute to Arizona’s craft beer excellence — to downtown Tucson.

This year’s sudsy event is from 1 – 4:30 p.m. (VIP entry is at noon) on Saturday, April 5, at Armory Park, 222 S. Fifth Ave.

“Enjoy offerings of over 100 beverages, mingle with brewers, play lawn games, and many more activities!” Plus, local food trucks will be parked at the park to balance your cravings (food trucks TBD).

On Saturday, more than 25 breweries will be pouring samples, including a couple of distilleries — Arizona Distilling Co. and O.H.S.O Brewery + Distillery (they’ll have beer, too).

If you’re a Foodie Club member, there’s a special discount of $25 off waiting for you. You can find all of the details in the Tucson Foodie app.
