Love Beer? Then Don’t Miss the Pittsburgh Brewery Guide Launch Party

Pittsburgh’s craft brew scene is coming together in the name of kinship, not competition – and you’re invited!

This week marks the launch of the Pittsburgh Brewery Guide, a brand-new brewery passport designed by the Pittsburgh Brewers Guild. The book guides Pittsburgh beer lovers all over the city to various breweries, and explains history  and amenities of each brewery, as well as providing space for notes on the beer. Each brewery visited stamps the book – just like a real passport!

To celebrate the launch of the guide, the Pittsburgh Brewers Guild is hosting a release party on Friday, August 24 from 6:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M. at NOVA Place.
