Local First offers our deep condolences to the SanTan Brewing family on the loss of founder, Anthony Canecchia. Anthony has been a staple for the local brewery community for years, representing the largest producing local brewery in the state and creating a widespread impact on thousands of Arizonans. Through Anthony's leadership, SanTan Brewing has been an active member of Local First for 15+ years and an ongoing participant in our annual events, including Devour Culinary Classic and the Arizona Fall Festival. Arizona would not be the same without him, and our hearts and thoughts are with his loved ones and the SanTan Brewing team. The entire local brewery and business community will benefit from his impact for years to come.
