Once again we are Live on Location this week at Tap and Bottle. Owners Scott and Rebecca kept the conversation going for part two as we discussed some out of state breweries that are new to Tucson. Another good decision on their part was to not only talk about those breweries, but to…
The moment is finally here! Our first ever Live on Location. Today will be Part One of our three part interview with Scott and Rebecca, the owners of Tap and Bottle. During the show we will be discussing a variety of topics including the abundance of local breweries opening up in Tucson.…
