5th annual Tucson CSC New Years Run

Dude! Thanks for posting that link. I think that was the last run I setup and probably the last wheeling I did besides hunting and camping with you.

Pre-run was also epic with tree frogs, heat, humidity, Ross getting us trouble with a county deputy.. And the later panhard break run and how to fix it was educational.

 

[MaddBaggins]

That was the absolute longest 75mile drive ever. 5hrs on graded dirt. I also broke a rear upper control arm on that trip. Aftermarket, the eye that held the bushing tore apart. It was after that trip I got a stick of 1/4" wall 1-1/2" DOM tubing and made new control arms and new panhards.

I don't even drink beer, and I'd be down for the Tucson beer run!

Congratulations! Beer is science and art with a little hocus pocus. Very hard for us mere mortals to comprehend.

Congratulations on the trophy! Where can I taste this stout?

Currently on tap at Tap and Bottle. Arizona Beer House will have a keg soon and 1702 will have it on when something else kicks. It was a small batch so it won't be around too long.

Nice. Well I won't be back down in Tucson until Thanksgiving week, so hopefully it'll still be on someplace then.

Finally had a chance to sample your award winning stout and I can confirm its goodness!

How about Four Peaks wilderness and then Four Peaks in Tempe??? Our best brewery IMO

 

[MaddBaggins]

Arizona Wilderness is a good brewery but not a Tucson brewery. Four Peaks sold out to AB InBev so they most definitely do not count. IMO Four Peaks beer was meh, even before the sellout.

Edible Baja Arizona is a magazine focused on the southern section of AZ, thus the exclusion of anything PHX.

For anyone who ventures to the Tombstone area these guys are a must. Their Eastern style IPA is delicious and also on tap at the Crystal Palace.

Tombstone brewery is killing it. I had their imperial stout and mosaic IPA tonight. Delicious!
