Beer in Review

Time for a couple updates from 2007.  I'll add more in a bit, but here's the short list:

- Snow Melt Winter Ale: #1 Ranked Winter Warmer on BeerAdvocate.com (11/07)

- Black Strap Stout: #7 Ranked American Stout on BeerAdvocate.com (1/08)

- Kvass: #1 Ranked Kvass on Beer Advocate.com (1/08)... this time it's true!

- East End Brewing ranked #31 out of all American Breweries!


Some people have been saying some really nice things about EAST END BREWING and our beers over the last year (2006), so at the risk of tooting our own horn here, I'll let them do it instead...

  • Best New Brewery of the Year - Lew Bryson 2005 (okay so this was talking about 2005, but it was said in 2006)
  • Black Strap Stout - Top 10 of American Stouts in the world - BeerAdvocate (at #8 as of 1/13/07).
  • Black Strap Stout - Best Stout, Pittsburgh Brewfest 2006
  • East End Witte - Best Wheat Beer, Pittsburgh Brewfest 2006 (Reformulated version with the new corriander!)
  • Gratitude Barleywine 2005 - Best of the Fest, Kelly's "Hell With The Lid Off" Barleywine Festival 2006
  • Session Ale #5 - "Kvass" - Best Kvass Brewed in the country (Actually, I made this one up...it's the ONLY Kvass brewed in this country, but we did make some history .)
