After five years in business, FireTruck Brewing Company’s east side taproom at 9155 E. Tanque Verde Rd. #177 will be permanently closing.
The last day to stop by for a brew is Saturday, March 30.
The original midtown location (4746 E. Grant Rd.) and the Oro Valley location (9630 N. Oracle Rd. #110) will remain open.
“It is with a sad heart that Saturday, March 30 will be our last day at our Tanque Verde location,” the FireTruck Brewing team announced on Facebook. “We have been blessed with wonderful customers for the last five years at FireTruck East.”
The team isn’t closing the taproom quietly, though. They’re hosting a going away/goodbye party on Friday, March 29 from 11 a.m. – 10 p.m.
“Please come and join us to say goodbye this week especially on Friday for our party. Our Grant/Swan and Oro Valley locations will be continuing on with some new additions to Grant/Swan.”
Stay tuned for the changes coming to the midtown location. Meanwhile, pay a final visit to the Tanque Verde location before Sunday and give them a toast for five years on the east side.
FireTruck Brewing Company is located at 9155 E. Tanque Verde Rd. #177 (the last day is Saturday, March 30), 4746 E. Grant Rd., and 9630 N. Oracle Rd. #110. For more information on all of the menus and hours of operation, visit firetruckbrewing.com.

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.
