San Diego Zoo Food & Wine Festival 2025: Spicy Margarita Night With Tap Truck San Diego

These days you never know what you’ll see at the zoo. Maybe some monkeys, perhaps a couple of bears…how about catching a glimpse of two wild Corbins out and about? Well, If you caught us at the San Diego Zoo’s 2025 Beer & Wine Festival you would’ve seen all that and more  as Tap Truck cruised its way into the middle of some serious wildlife for some all-natural tap-tending and vending. This Cinco de Mayo weekend was one to remember as Corbin pulled out all the stops in order to provide exceptional beer and even better customer service for the huge crowds at the zoo.

At Tap Truck, we take pride in serving up a wide variety of beverages for our community. Whether you’re craving a fresh margarita, a draft beer, or even a simple club soda, we show up ready to keep your event flowing with all the drinks you need for a good time.

But for this event, we brought something a little extra special — and a little extra spicy. If you’ve been following along on our YouTube channel or socials, you probably already caught a glimpse of the Spicy Fiero Margarita we were slinging. This showstopper, crafted with Fiero Tequila and topped with just a hint of Tajín, was the star of the evening. If you know the Tap Daddy, you know he’s picky about his tequila — so when he gives his stamp of approval, you can bet it’s a hit. Before the party kicked off, we did a little “quality control” (aka pre-sipping) to make sure everything on tap was just right. Judging by the reactions of our guests down at Corbin’s Bar & Feasts, we nailed it — and then some.

Lets not forget about who hauled our mix to the party. Our lovely green 1953 Chevy F100, one of our amazing fleet of vintage Tap Trucks down here in sunny San Diego, was on tap duty for this party. We have more than 10 of these trucks ready to hit any event at a moment's notice. Each with its own unique vibe to add some flavor to a party. For you car enthusiasts out there, don’t be afraid to ask Corbin to pop the hood if you catch us out there pouring up. Curious customers are our favorite when it comes to classic cars, we’re always happy to chat about the craftsmanship that goes into outfitting our trucks with our intuitive beer systems. At Tap Truck, It’s all about p airing a classy look with a great drink in your hand!

We’re honored every time we’re invited to be part of these special events and to serve our community. If you’ve got a party, wedding, corporate gathering, or private event coming up, we’re just a few clicks or a call away. We’ll handle all the logistics — so all you have to do is grab a glass and let the good times roll.
