Pittsburgh - New Beers & Local Breweries

Shady just tweeted some Black Note on the premises.

 

Hey folks! Just dropping by wondering if anyone has spotted SN Oktoberfest anywhere yet?

 

It is not released in the area yet

All gone I take it?

 

All gone, 2.5 hours in.

 

Yeah, I had like 20 or so friends come with me and we cleared 'em out. I pounded about 12 in the parking lot, and then walked around Walnut for a few hours catchin' pokemon and shit. Sorry if anyone missed out.

 

Addaboy. Troll that jolly fuckin pumpkin right back.

 

Thanks for the info! Is there any easy way to figure this out, or is that just based on you not seeing them anywhere?

 

It is most likely releasing next week but these decisions have a way of changing for various reasons.. It's a job for some people on here to know when beers are releasing. It might be easiest to look back through the thread and learn who these people are. Asking people who work for retailers, wholesalers or breweries is usually the best way to get info.

 

I picked some up 2 weeks ago in boardman ohio, it's most definitely around.

 

It should be really soon. It's available in Erie, and Erie is either a week ahead or behind you guys based upon distributors.

 

Last year it was in Boardman 8/1 and did not show up in PGH until the last week of August.

 

Yeah I remember this as well. PGH was like one of the last markets to receive it seemingly.

 

Looks like Sierra Oktoberfest is going to be another week.

 

Has Black Note been spotted anywhere else or can we expect to see it anywhere around? I'd love to get my hands on a bottle.

@randylangford Will any of the other Market District's be getting Shorts Psychedelic Cat Grass today? (and more specifically, Settlers Ridge?) I'm gonna guess no but it'd be a lot cooler if they did.

 

For what it's worth, SN Oktoberfest is starting to pop up in the south hills.

 

Only 3 bottle shops got it. Shadyside MD, Wexford WF and some other place. Robinson got none.

 

Thanks for the update. Robinson MD is 5 minutes from my house yet I seem to be making the drive to SS more and more.
