Copper Mine Brewing Company, Tucson's newest brewery at 3455 S. Palo Verde Road, will hold its grand opening from noon to 9 p.m. this Saturday.Β 

The brewery will have six beers on tap, Haus of Brats and Gigi's Fusion food trucks providing the eats and will launch at the same time as 4th on 44th festivities around the corner. 4th on 44th is a block party featuring breweries, distilleries and other homegrown businesses along East 44th St., including Green Feet Brewing, 1055 Brewing and Three Wells Distilling.Β 

Owned and operated by Jeff Kaber and Jeremy Pye, Copper Mine will run on a four-barrel system picked up from Colorado Brewing Systems in Fort Collins, Colorado.Β 

Kaber said in an interview late last year that the initial goal will be to focus on producing beer for the taproom first.

β€œDown the road, we definitely see going into restaurants, bars, storefronts,” Kaber said, but distribution won’t occur until after the first six months of production, he added.
