Pittsburgh - New Beers & Local Breweries

EDIT

Scratch that. I get the brewery and the brewpub mixed up. You're right. They are closed on Sunday. Shit...

 

Can't this weekend, but would be interested in a future VE run sometime.

 

In the JO thread, Brad had mentioned that they were working on staffing for potential Sunday hours...

Some dude mentioned heading out on Sunday...his response:

 

I think I saw on twitter that they were going to be open from 1-5 on Sunday this weekend.

Pretty sure I'm going on Saturday; the wife and kids want to drive all the way to Columbus to eat at Chuys (not even kidding) so I agreed as long as we detour to Athens first. PM what you want if you don't feel like going on Sunday.

 

Enough talk about Fat Heads in Portland, man some of you guys know how to rant . Let talk about something we can all enjoy. Its about that time for another share to take place. Plus the fact that one of our old friends, @DavoleBomb , has returned to the burgh its only fitting we bestow our wares upon him

 

@brewgentlemen any other bottles currently on hand other than Ligne Claire? Didn't know if you guys had any of the other bottled saisons or Skeumorph left lying around.

 

Excellent. Appreciate the info.

 

I'm assuming the bretted version?

 

So that Pittsburgh Magazine 'Burgh Brew Bracket competish is down to General Braddock's vs. Good Vibes. I have a feeling a lot will vote by default just based on the one of those they may have had.

 

You guys put a ton of citra in that mosaic saison didn't you? I love the citra taste in that one.

 

The real question should be why are there 37 ratings for GNVP and only 11 reviews. I think we need to have a refresher class on how to promote local beer.

 

Scale 1-5:
1 - Trolololo
2 - My homebrew is better
3 - Meh/Pedestrian/Solid
4 - It's actually pretty good, for Pittsburgh
5 - I just want to trade this

 

Tapping tonight - Atlas Bottle Works @7:30pm: 3 Floyds Brewing + New Belgium Collaboration: Lips Of Faith - Gratzer

Then showcasing the New Belgium CLIPS tour at Row House Cinema next door ($5 for the movie). New Belgium selects approximately 20 short films for the tour each season. 2015's chosen films include a panda with an attitude about craft beer, a mano-a-mano mountain bike brawl, a whimsical human-powered surf rig and much, much more! It’s a diverse and highly entertaining line-up with something for everyone.

Fun event, thought I share.

 

Anyone know what glassware they sell at Voodoo Homestead? Any Teku's or Barrel-Room glasses (they are on the web store)?? @voodoobrewery @london1o1

 

I'm doing a Portland/Hood River/Bend trip in May and am looking forward to seeing how FH beers stand up to others out here. Always been a big fan of Fatheads beer. Bottled Sunshine (not draft) is super underrated to me.

 

You won't regret Barbacoa at all. Lots of places in Philly are BYOB now, one of the better things about that place besides the beer. If you are looking for a bottle shop go to Local 44 in west Philly, best prices and a great selection. There is a bar connected to it also. They usually have some good stuff on tap. And there is a decent bottle shop around the corner from the brew cafe in ardmore, they have the best prices on Russian River sours in the area when they have them and a pretty good selection of other stuff as well.

 

Unless they recently sold out, believe yes as to both.
