I Heart Pgh!



 
Scott cracks a smile.

 
YOU FOUND US...Pittsburgh's MICRO-est microbrewery! If you're new around here, this site should get 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

I may not be in town this week, but that doesn't means the beer's taking a week off too... We're back in Stock on Black Strap and East End Witte, Wheat Hop has run out for good, and we're barely going to squeak by on Pedal Pale Ale before the next batch comes out this week.

So... that's

Big Hop IPA

Black Strap Stout

Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale

East End Witte

Session #13: Here it GOSE again

Monkey Boy Hefewiezen

and Pedal Pale Ale

...plus THREE and Gratitude 2006 in bottle conditioned form.

Somebody will see you soon!  Cheers - Scott

This week, we say goodbye to Session Ale #14 - Scottish 80 Shilling, (Gosh, we hardly knew ya!), get ourselves full restocked with a fresh batch of East End Witte, and have a brief outage of Black Strap Stout on Tuesday...but it'll be back on Thursday.

Big Hop IPA

Black Strap Stout

Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale

Monkey Boy Hefewiezen

East End Witte 

Pedal Pale Ale

Session #7: Wheat Hop

Session #13: Here it GOSE again

Still bottles of GRATITUDE 06 and THREE to be had, but not for much longer!

Cheers - Scott 

Whew, it looks like I've been neglecting the updates to the beer lineup lately, so let's get caught up:

Big Hop IPA

Black Strap Stout

Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale

Monkey Boy Hefewiezen

Pedal Pale Ale

Session #7: Wheat Hop

Session #13: Here it GOSE again

Session #14: Scottish 80 Shilling (last keg!)

Sadly, we're out of East End Witte for the moment, but that will be back in stock on Tuesday, July 15th.

There's also sixtels of Fat Gary, Big Hop, and Pedal Pale Ale in stock for those last-minute parties... and fresh quarters of Monkey Boy too!

Bottles of '06 Gratitude and THREE are still around too, though we've got maybe 8 cases of THREE left right now.  Look for the release of Gratitude '07 to happen late this month, or early next!

See you soon!  Cheers - Scott 

I'm getting LOTS of calls - so I'll post it here:

This week, we're open...

THURSDAY, JULY 3rd from 5-7pm

FRIDAY, JULY  4th from 5-7pm

and SATURDAY, JULY 5th from 12-5pm.

If these look like our regular hours, that's because they are...See you here!

Cheers - Scott 

 

I'm not sure if the beer shortage is quite as painful as reading that subject line, but the good news is that THEY'RE BOTH OVER!

Yes, we're fully stocked now so that you can celebrate Independence Day with beer from your favorite Independent Brewery! Starting Thursday for Growler Hours, we're pouring:

Monkey Boy Hefewiezen

Pedal Pale Ale (AMERICAN Pale Ale by the way)

Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale

Big Hop IPA

Black Strap Stout (also, an AMERICAN Stout)

East End Witte 

Session Ale #7: Wheat Hop

Session #13: Here it GOSE again

Plus, oneof the last weeks for Gratitude 2006 and THREE, our triple anniversary beer.

See you soon! Cheers - Scott

Ladies and Gentlemen, some sad news:

We are making our final approach to some dark times at the brewery... what I'm tentatively calling The Great Beer Shortage of 2008. The last kegs of Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale, East End Witte, Monkey Boy Hefewiezen,Pedal Pale Ale, Session #7: Wheat Hop, Session #14: Scottish 80 Shilling (and in another week or so, Black Strap Stout) will likely be drained before the week is out. Yes, that includes any stock at the distributors. It came up quickly, and though I've been brewing my bee-hind off this week, it will take some time before all these beers are completely fermented up and ready to go.

Yes, there will be more Pedal coming this year, and more Monkey Boy too!  Along with regulars like Fat Gary, Witte, and Black Strap...still no word on the next session ale though.

So, I just wanted to make sure you knew that the chances of finding all of these on tap at the 5pm close of Growler Hours on Saturday is pretty slim (so come early and stock up!), but come hell or high water, we've still got PLENTY of good ol' Big Hop IPA to drown your sorrows until the rest of the family is back on tap.

Thanks for your patience! 

Cheers - Scott

Heya folks.  Though the weather is strangely cool at the moment, it could get REALLY HOT any minute now, but don't worry.  We're ready with no less than FOUR Season of Wheat beers for you to choose from...

East End Witte

Monkey Boy Hefeweizen

Session #7: Wheat Hop

Session #13: Here is GOSE Again...

...and the regular lineup of usual suspects.

Big Hop IPA

Black Strap Stout (coming back on Friday)

Fat Gary Nut Brown

Pedal Pale Ale

Session #14: Scottish 80 shilling (only 2 kegs left!)

Oh, and there's like maye 2 Growlers worth of Lichtenhainer still in the building - and once that's gone, you'll have to head to Marzoni's for it.

Plus, we're down to about 8 cases of THREE, and about the same amount of Gratitude 2006. But good news there... the labels are finally ready for Gratitude 2007!!! So it's a matter of weeks until the BIG releas...stay tuned!

Cheers - Scott
