Heading to SE ohio for a canine adoption event and looking for brewery recommendations near Niles Ohio (I know it's not Pittsburgh but most people in the tri-state area consider themselves "from Pittsburgh"). Thanks.

Anyone know why we haven’t seen these at all in 2026? Seems like every other market on the east coast, including eastern PA continue to get drops regularly but I don’t think Pittsburgh has gotten cans since Thanksgiving last year.

Easy-drinkin' lagers

15 Upvotes

I'm glad to see more breweries putting out some easy-to-drink lagers, especially for the summer. Beers like Golden Age Premium Lager and Grist Hose Command House Lager come to mind.

What are some recommendations for similar local or regional/PA craft lagers that I can pick up in cans at distributors? Ones I've seen so far are:

New Trail Crisp Lager Cinderlands Easy Course Cinderlands Little Cinder Troegs Sunshine Lager Troegs Pennsylvania Lager

Summer Beer Share / Market

Just wanted to share our quarterly Beer Share Event this Saturday from 2-5PM.

For those unfamiliar with shares, you just bring a 4-pack or bottle to share from your favorite brewery, and then sample anything else that was brought to share! It’s a great way to meet other beer enthusiasts in the area, and try some beers you haven’t yet.

We’ll also have some great local vendors to check out at this one, and some food.

Sign up here if interested!

Would be awesome to see some new faces and meet some fellow beer drinking nerds. For the sake of knowing roughly how much product to get for the event, we're asking for anyone to fill out the following google doc:

Best Brewery Food in Pgh?

Thumbnail

30 Upvotes

If anyone here likes keeping track of the best food at Pittsburgh breweries, I’ve been building a free app called DishBurgh. Instead of reviewing entire restaurants, people rate individual dishes, so you can quickly see things like which brewery has the best smash burger, wings, pretzel, fish sandwich, etc.

It’s still Pittsburgh-only and community-driven, so I’m always looking for more brewery food reviews. If you end up trying something great (or terrible), I’d love to have you add it.

Cheers!

Get on down to Golden Age Beer Co. in Homestead for their "historiche" rauchbier. I typically don't care for darker beers, but this slightly darker lager is *loaded* with smokey goodness. If you like Islay scotch, you'll probably love this beer. You'll have smokey aftertaste forever.

If you don't like smoke, their regular lager is delicious in its own right.

Smoke in the air this week. Smoke in the beer next week!

A timely event at Golden Age!/ I love rauchbiers so I'm really looking forward to this event, even if the air is full of smoke today.

Pittsburgh Picnic by Hitchhiker

Can yinz help me track down some cans of the Pittsburgh Picnic smoothie sour from Hitchhiker? I’m on a mission to find some before a friend’s wedding in a few weeks. I know they have some on tap in Sharpsburg but I’d really love some cans. Has anyone seen it for sale anywhere?

Edit; it’s the Strawberry Pretzel sour

Anybody else try it yet? Thoughts?

I had it on draft last night at Industry and was thoroughly disappointed. They claim it's "liquid bread," and while I can kinda taste it, it's very subtle. Overall I found the flavor lacking and the beer was unimpressive. Glad I paid for a glass instead of buying a 6-pack.

Quick beer run or distributor recommendations

12 Upvotes

I have some family coming into town this weekend from Vermont and just outside of Asheville. I only have time for a quick beer run to pick up cans tomorrow, but wanted to bring some fresh flagship beers.

Any suggestions on A) a distributor with a good selection of local flagships that haven't been on the shelf for months or B) a quick trip to multiple nearby places.

Right now I'm planning to drive south along the Allegheny river:

Old Thunder False Kingdom Hitchhiker Bane of Existence DG Lustra + ?? Jam? Pounce? Grist House Hazedelic

A single distributor would save a lot of time. I just don't want hazies that are months old.
