    To be as specific as possible, and to keep the information as fresh and relivant as possible, I will start a new thread monthly to keep the residents and visitors of our fine city up to date and in the know.

    First up is Dancing Gnome. Discuss what you have had or what you're looking forward to.

    Also anything else known on the horizon?

    To less fanfare, Allegheny City Brewing opened their doors today, I think.

    They did, I tried a few of their beers at a soft opening and did t really get a good chance to judge what I was having. The space is really cool, but small. I hope they have dialed in their core beers before trying to do too many things. I will most likely visit in the near future.

    From Roundabout's website they will be canning Jacked Up O’Lantern tomorrow. Always a great brew to sip on this time of year.

    Went today and had one of the last pours of the jacked up base with coconut. Really super beer, he only did 2 kegs that way. I always look forward to the jacked up.

    Does anyone anticipate Voodoo Homestead like Grand Opening crowds for Dancing Gnome tomorrow?

    I wouldn't. When Voodoo Homestead opened they were a known commodity with a ton of barrel-aged beers on tap. That said, I wouldn't expect them to be dead either. It's a grand opening of a brewery that's had some pre-opening hype.

    Stopped at the Dancing Gnome around 2 yesterday, the place had a nice crowd...~50 some people. Had the Pharmakon Pale Ale...nice tasting hoppy pale ale with a light bitter finish. I was impressed with how the place looked and will be back.

    Beautiful spot with a lot of seating. Lustra was the best of the bunch for me.

    Lustra was indeed delicious. I liked Aevum as well. Pharmakon was nice. I did not care for Wonka.

    Has anyone ever seen schlenkerla mini kegs in the area? I'm really wanting to get one or two to take up to my buddies hunting camp next month.

    I don't think the wholesaler brings them in. Call frank Fuhrer wholesale and ask.

    Dancing Gnome is legit. Went there and tried a splash of everything...left with a growl of Lustra.
    Nice place. Refreshing to see an opening with a sizable investment . The location is really nice and you can see that a lot of money and effort has been put into the opening and recipes.
    Pretty excited about this place
