Pittsburgh - New Beers & Local Breweries

Caliente had some talent and say in the recipe formulation, sent a brewer (hint), working in the process, the recipe also contains Blueberries and Blackberries and aged in wine barrels. Cheers!

 

shitty breweries open when friends tell homebrew friends that their beer is good either because a) said taster has shitty taste in beer or b) they lie to their friend because it is much easier and non-confrontational than having to spend 5 minutes explaining your logic only to have them most likely ignore it.

obviously, it is not as easy as you all claim it is to be honest. otherwise, there wouldn't be 2,500 shitty breweries in this country.

 

obviously caliente helped a lot in the collab. brewing involves a lot of standing around doing nothing, so they sent their entire wait staff over to DL.

 

OBVIOUSLY.

 

Shitty breweries open regardless and happen for a number of different reasons. I'd venture to say nearly every professional brewer has home brewed at some point. There are tons of examples of homebrewers who turn pro and do extremely well.

 

I wouldn't trust many brewers who didn't brew at home at some point, I'd gather a large percentage would.

 

Drinking right now. It's fantastic.

 

Jay-Z of the Pittsburgh beer scene.

 

The barlewine, Nonstop Forever, is also really nice when it warms a bit. Big and caramel-y. The cpa, citra saison, and clown party are nice, but I'm really feeling the barlewine right now.

 

Negative. Jay-Z is incredibly talented.

 

Ok but jay z is the greatest of all time in his craft so not really a good point sorry huge jay z fan

 

He has been trying his best to erase his great past though. Anything after the black album has almost ruined Jay-z for me. Especially Kanye working his old lifeless corpse like a puppet for watch the throne.


(Beer, Pittsburgh Beer)

 

American gangster is underrated but I agree with what u say I love Kanye to but that album was ass.

 

anything noteworthy goin down tn?

 

At least you know how to post images.

 

@shuggy I am trying to come to Butler tomorrow afternoon, will you be around slanging any IPAS?????

 

Nobody ever tries to come to Butler. Are you sure about where you are going?

On the rare unfortunate chance that you are actually going to be in my fantastic town, you have picked the only Saturday in the past 5 years that I will be unavailable. I am currently in Maryland and I won't be back until 5 or 6pm on Saturday at which point I will be filling a couple bottles to deliver in Pittsburgh.

 

@shuggy of course! I grew up in Evans City, so I have been to Butler many times. We even got married on Main Street in butler!Now that there is a beer establishment, I will frequent more often. I will have to let you know the next Saturday I make it up.

 

Evans City? You have my condolences. The only place worse off than Butler.

No BS, I haven't been on vacation in over 5 years so this is unfortunate timing but my door is damn near always open for anybody that would like to stop by.
