Free beer for a year? Huss Brewing to hold Willy Wonka-style ticket contest

🍺 Tempe-based Huss Brewing will celebrate its 10-year anniversary next month with a Willy Wonka-style golden ticket contest to give 10 people free beer for a year.

The background: Huss was launched in 2013 by brewer Jeff Huss and his wife, Leah, who was a co-owner of Papago Brewing and its general manager for 14 years.

  • Huss bought Papago in 2016.

The contest: From Aug. 11 through Oct. 1, Huss will place eight golden tickets into six-packs and 12-packs of Scottsdale Blonde or Papago Orange Blossom sold at retailers throughout the Valley,

  • Anyone who finds a golden can and ticket will win free beer for a year (defined as two cases per month via gift cards, an $800 value), a peek inside the brewing factory (including a tour from the founders), and Huss swag.

Plus: Two additional winners will be chosen via scan at local restaurants, the Huss flagship location in Tempe, the Huss taprooms in downtown Phoenix and uptown Phoenix, and Papago Brewing in Mesa.
