151 days of tequila kicks off Sunday at Zolo Southwestern Grill

If you're a tequila imbiber, boy do we have a dealio for you. Beginning Sunday, November 1, Zolo Southwestern Grill in Boulder, 2525 Arapahoe, is unleashing its love for tequila, a party that will continue for the next 151 days (until March 31), which is the same number of tequilas that Zolo stocks on it shelves.

The party officially kicks off at 8 p.m. Sunday with a Milagro cocktail contest to see which Denver/Boulder mixologist best struts their tequila knowledge, plus happy hour food specials, $4 margaritas and $1 Tecate cans and the opportunity to sample the competing cocktails.

Throughout Zolo's 151 Days of debauchery tequila sampling, you can order shots of the stuff to be entered to win a trip to Jalisco, Mexico, join the joint's Tequila Club to earn rewards as you taste your way through all 151 tequilas, or partake in Tequila Tuesday, when the kitchen rolls out a $35 prix fixe menu paired with -- what else? -- tequilas on the first Tuesday of the month.
