Beers of the Burgh

Beers of the Burgh Beer Festival In Pittsburgh Celebrating Local Beer It’s pretty simple. We love Pittsburgh. And we love beer. Cheers to 3 rivers... united by beer.
(1)

Our mission at Beers of the Burgh is to showcase and celebrate the diverse craft-brewing community unique to our city. With over 50 established breweries in the area, and even more in development, we’re committed to providing a resource for people to stay exposed to each and every one of them. Through semi-annual events and weekly blog profiles, Beers of the Burgh will keep the craft beer communit

y connected, from brewers to bar owners to ale enthusiasts of every kind. And because we want to do our part for the city we love, each Beers of the Burgh event will each be held in benefit of a local nonprofit organization. We believe in a strong correlation between the growth of craft beer in Pittsburgh and the growth of Pittsburgh as a whole.
