The Tucson Craft Beer Crawl returns February 18, 2017 from 1 – 5 p.m. with 9 venues and up to 30 participating brewers confirmed to date.

VIP check-in starts at 11:30 a.m. at the Beer Garden on Fifth Avenue (55 N. 5th Ave.), 12:30 p.m. for general admission. Bring your ID and printed tickets to receive your wristband, map, and 5-ounce sampling glass.

General admission tickets are $40 online while supplies last, $40 afterwards. VIP tickets, which include early admission, a food voucher, and beer cocktail samples at the VIP bar, are $70. Tickets are another $5 if you wait until the day of the event, if there are tickets left.

Designated driver tickets are $7.

Early bird tickets already sold out, while the 2015 and 2016 events completely sold out, so make sure to buy your tickets as soon as possible.

While rain is possible Saturday afternoon, five venues are indoors and the remaining four will be tented.

A percentage of the proceeds will benefit Watershed Management Group, a Tucson-based non-profit organization that works to restore flow to desert rivers, create healthy urban watersheds, and promote green, walkable neighborhoods.

@Pueblovida is closing its original downtown taproom this fall, 12 years after opening, and moving next door to a larger space at 121 E. Broadway Blvd.

The new taproom will seat 100+ guests and feature 14 taps, a curated wine program and, for the first time, a restaurant. Chef Scott Girod of @Anello_pizzeria will open a new restaurant in the shared space, expected to follow the taproom’s late fall 2026 opening in early 2027.

“This taproom has always been more than four walls. It’s where we’ve celebrated milestones, introduced hundreds of new beers, watched friendships grow and built a community we’re incredibly grateful for. While we’re excited about what’s next, it’s impossible not to feel sentimental about saying goodbye to the place where it all happened.” — @Pueblovida Co-founder Linette Antillon
