It’s likely you’ve read at least one of our Eating on the Cheap articles in the past. There are also plenty of deals in the local beverage world here in Tucson.
Screwbean Brewing, the newest brewery to open its doors in Tucson, which is also a cozy coffee shop, is offering $5 pints of beer throughout the month of October. That’s right — we’re not screwin‘ with you here — everything on draft will be $5 from now until the end of the month.
The taproom at 103 N. Park Ave. has at least a couple of their own beers on tap including the In the Shade hazy IPA, and then also a few other beers on tap from local breweries.
Again, this is only during the month of October 2023.
Screwbean Brewing was named after the Screwbean Mesquite, which produces groovy corkscrew-shaped seed pods rather than the elongated pods of less visionary mesquite varieties.
The home of Screwbean Brewing Company is a nearly-100-year-old building situated a few blocks south of the University of Arizona campus on Park Avenue. The space was originally a Chinese market in the 1930s, then housed an electrical supply wholesaler, then became the original offices of Tucson Foodie, and most recently was the storefront for Good Eye Living home decor.

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.
