YOU FOUND US...Pittsburgh's MICRO-est microbrewery! If you're new around here, this site should get you up to speed in no time - and you can always come visit during our "Growler Hours", and I can pour you a taste to make up for some of that lost time. Hope to see you soon! Cheers, Scott

It looks like we get to have TWO St. Patrick's Days this year. This seems a little odd to me, since when are Pittsburghers shy about having a beer on a Wednesday? But hey, two is better than one, right?
Regardless of which day (or days) you're celebrating your alleged Irish-ness, we've got you covered with 8 GREEN BEERS on tap to choose from, plus a few more in bottles...
Year-round offerings: Big Hop IPA, Black Strap Stout, Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale, Monkey Boy Hefeweizen.
Seasonals/One-offs: Snow Melt Winter Ale, Session Ale #34: Blabber 'N Smoke, Best of the 'Burgh Winner/Belgian IPA: Bouillon De Houblon (aka "Hop Broth"), Session Ale #36: Nooner Scottish Ale.
Big Bottles: Smokestack Heritage Porter, Gratitude 2009, and Wooden Nickel 5th Anniversary Saison. But sadly, due to people snatching up our labels before we got them on the bottles, the last 4 cases of Bigger Hop IIPA will have to wait until more labels are in from the printer. (Maybe we need to finally get those stickers printed up?)
Hope to see you soon! Cheers - Scott
A new beer quietly went on tap yesterday: Session Ale #36: "Nooner" Scottish Ale is a wee nod to brewer and beer writer Greg Noonan who recently passed. A perfect way to spend an afternoon, waiting for Spring.
Also on tap are...
Year round beers: Big Hop IPA, Black Strap Stout, Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale, Monkey Boy Hefeweizen.
Seasonals/One-offs: Snow Melt Winter Ale, Session Ale #34: Blabber 'N Smoke, Best of the 'Burgh Winner: Bouillon De Houblon (aka "Hop Broth") a Belgian Style IPA recipe from Mike Moretti, and the afore mentioned Session Ale #36: Nooner Scottish Ale.
Big Bottles: Bigger Hop IIPA (maybe 6 cases left?), Smokestack Heritage Porter. Plus, on Saturday we're releasing Gratitude 2009, and Wooden Nickel 5th Anniversary Saison.
See you here soon! Cheers - Scott
Here's the devoted web page for this release.
More info when I know it! Cheers - Scott
Bottles of Gratitude 2009 will be released here at the brewery on Saturday, March 6th starting at 12 noon. More details will follow, including a devoted web page with pricing, stacked vertical pack availabilities, winning lotter numbers, and all sorts of other related and unrelated info.
For now, just keep the day open, okay?
This past weekend, after just a few short weeks at the taps, we said goodbye to Session Ale #33: Yankee Wanker. This was tough, since earlier in the week we also lost our Along Came A Cider and just before that, Maybe Friday Belgian Pale Ale. Seems to be a big run on our Session Ales in general lately, and it's proving to be quite a challenge to keep up. Maybe small really is becoming the new big?
Here's what's on tap this week:
Year round beers: Big Hop IPA, Black Strap Stout, Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale, Monkey Boy Hefeweizen.
Seasonals and one-offs: Snow Melt Winter Ale, Session Ale #34: Blabber 'N Smoke, Session Ale #35 Chocolate Covered Cherry Stout (just 3 kegs left!), and after the Wed night release at the Sharp Edge Creekhouse, Best of the 'Burgh Winner: Bouillon De Houblon (aka "Hop Broth") a Belgian Style IPA recipe from Mike Moretti.
Big Bottles: Bigger Hop IIPA (maybe 8 cases left?), Smokestack Heritage Porter.
Gratitude 2009 is almost ready to release, as is our 5th Anniversary Saison - Wooden Nickel. Watch here for updates!
See you here soon! Cheers - Scott
This past Saturday, 12 of the Worlds Best Brewery Volunteers hand labeled 1500 bottles of Barleywine in a chilly, sticky, marathon wheat pasting session. With this HUGE step in place, we're a whole lot closer to booking a release day. Once I see how the drying is going, I'll make that call, and get to waxing and signing.
But in the mean time, here's this year's label for you to enjoy:
Cheers - Scott
...Because, WE REALLY ARE OPEN for Growler Hours tonight.
Beer list from earlier in the week still holds!
