Pittsburgh - New Beers & Local Breweries

I love dogs. I love kids. One of the two is much more likely than the other to take a dump in the middle of your taproom floor. I don't have an issue with either being allowed, but I understand the exclusion of dogs more than I do kids.

 

Agreed. I am sure there is a line right down the middle when it comes to people who have kids and people who don't and I understand when a business chooses to not allow kids.

 

He did a ninja-edit after I pointed it out. It's fixed now.

 

I would definitely disagree that the line is down the middle. If you surveyed the guys who all post and read in this thread, I think you'll find that far more than 50% of them have kids. I could be wrong, but I'd be really surprised.

 

Strongly believe there is not. And while absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence, if there was a law of any kind, I'd have to image it would effect more than one establishment. Unless maybe in the event of something punitive, but even then to be specific to children would be pretty unique.

 

IMPERIAL BOC ON VANILLA BEANZ

 

They just posted on instagram. Released today! Also this:

"
Also available today, we're doing a special firkin tapping to coincide with the #boc release. Each location has a pin (5.4gal) of our yet to be released Imperial Breakfast of Champions (12.1%) aged on Madagascar vanilla beans. This will be your only chance to try this for the next 12-16 months. We think you're going to like this one... Both locations still have good vibes bottles(bottled Friday) as well and a small amount of 2014 Big Black Voodoo Daddy available as well. What better way to start you week than with us?"

 

I like how they keep the hashtag beers the same but use different caps to determine which one it is, like red cap for cherry quadfather or white now for coconut. I always do think of America when I think of Peanut Butter

 

God damn that sounds so good. I'll be there with my broken foot today

 

Anyone want to meet up for a quick beer there tonight when they open?

 

Wow. So bottles of this Imperial vanilla BOC will be available today in homestead? I am at full mast.

 

I'd be interested in that.

 

No. Imperial BOC with Vanilla is on Cask.

#boc with Coconut is for sale

 

No

 

The first part didn't copy when I copied from Instagram

"
We've got another treat for you guys today. Available starting today, we have our next installment in the #hashtag series- #boc with coconut. $10/4pack, no limits. We also filled two 1/2bbls for each location to pour on draft so we're running this in place of the regular Breakfast of Champions starting today until it's gone. Unfortunately there will be no growler fills of this since there is so little draft because we wanted to keep bottle numbers as high as possible."

 

Awesome, thanks for clearing that up. I will definitely be stopping after work for both.

 

I wish it was wax colors that differentiated them though. Like regular BOC would be a beige layer for the oatmeal, a brown-ish layer for the maple, a dark brown later for the coffee, and then a different color for the variant. come on voodoo, try a little.

 

Wax looks cool, but is a pain in the ass. I'd gladly deal with the colored caps instead.

 

So much wax. I dig it. Maybe they should just put BOC into a wax bottle.....ie



Next level beer shit right there
