Borderlands Brewing Company is in the process of opening up a new location at 2500 E. Sixth St. You may be familiar with the building because it’s the corner lot at Tucson Boulevard that previously housed the sandwich shop PJ Subs.
The sandwiches have left the building and the brews are moving in — aiming to officially open up in fall 2022.
The brewery shared the news on social media, stating that it’s “about to get a whole lot tastier.”
“We are very excited about the new location,” said Es Teran, CEO of Borderlands Brewing Company. “Brewing will not be on site but we’re planning on providing a lounge vibe with great food.”
The crew at Borderlands Brewing also announced that they’re teaming up with chef Maria Mazon of BOCA Tacos y Tequila for a brand new menu. Keep an eye out for more info on that, which will be part of a new restaurant concept set to open somewhere on the north side of town.
Planning to open up in the fall is a smart move on Borderland Brewing’s behalf, too, being that there’s plenty of outdoor seating at the Sixth Street location. The weather will be in its prime and so will the people-watching experiences.
Other restaurants, bars, and shops in the area include Bob Dobb’s, Flora’s Market Run, Seven Cups Fine Chinese Tea, and Tumerico.
This isn’t the first move Borderlands Brewing has made in the past few years. Back in 2018, the brewery teamed up with FireTruck Brewing Company for a shared brewing space named Voltron Brewing at 330 S. Toole Ave. #200.
Borderlands Brewing Company’s new location will be at 2500 E. Sixth St. and you can find the original location at 119 E. Toole Ave. For more information, visit borderlandsbrewing.com or follow Borderlands Brewing on Instagram.

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.
