“Some incredible beer selections. My wife has Celiac Disease and we've tried many other gluten-free beer options and most are left wanting. Aurochs offerings aren't just really good GF beer options, they are really good beers period.“

“What a great experience! Never knew there were so many breweries in the Pittsburgh area. We had great beers from three breweries over 3.5 hours.
What made this tour 5 star was our guide Kevin D. Let’s face it, anybody can drive you around to some breweries but Kevin educated us on so many things and enlightened us on the whole brewing process. His knowledge of brewing and beer history is quite impressive. On top of that, he was a really cool dude and it felt like we were spending an afternoon catching up with an old friend.
I highly recommend this tour. Request Kevin if you can… it will be more than worth it!“

“Visited the original brewery many times but just recently visited the new building for the first time. Not my preferred vibe, less artisanal feeling, less 'hip', but it is a nice business space. And the beer is still good, of course“

“A very nice brewery with a good vibe. The selection of beers is pretty nice, ranging from different styles to alcohol levels. Me and my girlfriend were there for the first time last night with a buddy from work, who’s been there before. My favorites were the Out of Tune and Strange Brew. I’ll definitely come back again.“

“Levanator was great if you like dark beer. great place!“

“This is a great addition to the Southern Tier brand. If you've been to the Southern Tier in Lakewood, Buffalo, and Cleveland, you'll love this location.

The staff, layout of the restaurant, the quality of the beer, the variety of drinks, and the size of the menu are all consistent with the high quality of the Southern Tier brand.

Cheers!“

“I wish I could give Big Sewickley Creek Brewing more than 5 stars because they are amazing! The staff are so wonderful and will go out of their way to help anyone (especially someone that needed a birthday present!) Thank you for being a wonderful place to enjoy and having the best staff around!“

“The absolute best sour beer in the entire state of Pennsylvania. Dude behind the counter is always chill too.“

“Great place. Great beer. We’ll be back.“

“We came after a Pittsburgh Steelers game. After being in the cold and rain, what an amazing experience. The beer is phenomenal and the cocktails are amazing. The couches and chairs are a great place to watch a game. Amazing time can’t wait to come back. Thank you Trevor and Daren!“

“Made a trip out of our way to find them and we’re glad we did. Nice place, fast, friendly service, amazing food and beer. We’ll be back for sure!“

“Stopped in for Soul Pasta. It's really cool that they host food truck owners. The bar inside is pretty limited and they don't have any diet sodas. But the space is clean, the chairs are comfortable, and the temperature is pretty comfortable. They have a TV on to watch the game. I'd return.“

“Had the Johnny’s Mustache Pilsner. Good, light summer beer. But the highlight is the Nashville Chicken Sandwich from the adjacent Pittsburgh Sandwich Society. So good! Crunchy on the outside, tender on the inside, and a lightly grilled bun. Pretty spicy, but worth it.“

“great beer, great atmosphere, good food trucks and specials! would recommend!“

“Very good hazy IPA. H2P! #H2P“

“nice atmosphere ,cold beer“

“This has gradually become our favorite brewery in Pittsburgh. It's a great space with outdoor options, especially if you want to bring your dog along. There's a good variety of beers on tap and a few in cans to go. We've tried a wide variety from the sours to the stouts over the past few years, and I can't think of one that has disappointed. My favorite is their Dream Cannon #2: Black and Blue, a sour fruited with blue berries and black raspberries, but no matter what kind of beer you prefer, you will probably find something to like there. They usually have food trucks on site. I really appreciate that they're close to the main drag in Lawrenceville, but they're set back on a little side street, so it's actually a little quieter back there, making it a nice place to just chill with friends.“

“A great local brewery who's owners are very passionate about their craft and also very friendly and welcoming to everyone that comes through their door. We were very happy that we decided to stop in and plan on making Headley's one of our regular spots.“

“Review:

Stepping into this taproom is like entering a haven of nostalgia and well-being, where the ambiance is as carefully crafted as the beer they serve. From the moment you walk through the door, you're enveloped in a sense of warmth and familiarity that instantly puts you at ease.

The first thing that grabs your attention is the unmistakable crackle of music playing on vinyl records. It's a refreshing departure from the digital playlists that dominate most establishments, and it sets the perfect tone for an evening of relaxation and enjoyment. Each track seems to have been curated with care, evoking memories of simpler times and transporting you to a place of comfort and joy.

But it's not just the music that makes this place special; it's the beer. Crafted with a level of skill and passion that's evident in every sip, their brews are a testament to the artistry of the master brewers behind them. From crisp, refreshing lagers to rich, complex ales, there's something here to delight every palate.

What truly sets this taproom apart, however, is the sense of community that permeates the space. Whether you're chatting with the friendly staff behind the bar or striking up a conversation with fellow patrons, there's a feeling of camaraderie that's hard to find elsewhere. It's a place where strangers quickly become friends, bonded by a shared love of good music, great beer, and even better company.

In a world that often feels fast-paced and impersonal, this taproom is a welcome oasis of calm and connection. Whether you're looking to unwind after a long day or simply seeking a place to relax and recharge, it's the perfect destination. So grab a seat, order a pint, and let the music and the beer wash over you. You'll leave feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and already looking forward to your next visit.“

“Across the street from where my family business once was(est 1923), I can’t put into words how amazing and the pride I feel walking into Snappy’s keeping Mill Street memories alive and strong. This restaurant/bar is innovative and crisp. It represents how Coraopolis is becoming more and more a destination every day, and I would recommend this place for anyone who craves fantastic food and drinks. It’s relaxing and clean with a wonderful ownership, chef and staff. Can’t wait to come back!!!“

“If you're on the hunt for a chill spot with awesome food and beer in Wexford, you gotta check out this place.Let's start with the beer - they've got a killer selection of both their own brews and guest taps. The staff is super friendly and always willing to chat and give some great beer recommendations. Big-Time Timmy Jims (as I like to call him after a few key limes) behind the bar could not better exemplify this better.Now onto the food. It's limited, but seriously delicious. Their pimento cheese dip is a must-try, but you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Also, the turkey wrap? So fresh. #ChefsKissThe vibe here is just right - it's industrial-cool with plenty of natural light coming through. It's the kind of place you could hang out at for hours with your buds or bring a date for a laid-back night out.All in all, I'd say this place is a winner. Great beer, tasty food, and a super relaxed vibe that even Jon Taffer would love. What more could you want?“

“Great people, great atmospere and an all around peaceful easy feeling kinda place! love the Cobblehaus at the falls!“

“Cool place. Pinball in the basement, music upstairs.“

“Food and service was great! Everything came out very fast for it being slightly busy with an event going on. Reasonable pricing and great atmosphere“

“Excellent Beer. The Hazy #3 is heavenly.“

“Came here after work to order takeout because I wanted a bite to eat. I got the turkey sando and the tots and let me tell you I was impressed! I was skeptical about the hummus being on the sandwich and originally asked for it to be made without but i’m honestly glad that they ended up putting it on there because it took it to a whole new level! The vibe of the place was also a plus, really down to Earth!“

“Fantastic IPAs. Nice decor and very knowledgeable servers. Thank you!“

“F1 event is rad! Good cocktail’s great beer great event!“

“Great menu and beer selections. Way better with new ownership. Wet wedge salad with bacon, Serrano jam in the best salad I've ever had. Add shaved ribe eye and it's like $18. So worth it. Kadey is such a great bartender and everyone is so fast and friendly“

“Tried this place for the first time through Grubhub . Everything was so delicious . I eat food from different restaurants constantly and this was one of the best“

“Enjoying beers before Thanksgiving. Roundabout is great. Excellent beers! Friendly staff and a welcoming space, Dyana and Steve know their business. Highly recommended.“

“This is a great asset to Mt. Lebanon, growing up in Brooklyn, I am accustomed to pretty darn good pizza. East End makes a SOLID Sicilian! The beers are very good, pricing is a bit strong, I think they would do well to ease up a bit there maybe a 2for deal or something on the beer and the pizza they would do more volume and get more exposure. I frequent this place, and everything I have had so far has been like a Pittsburgh 9/10 or better. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and it's a great way to wrap up a long day!“

“Loved the Strawberry Fields chicken salad, the chicken bacon Ranch Piadina, and the Pizookie Trio was so decadent! Dustin B.was our server. polite, professional, helpful and friendly. Ask for him when you stop in!“

“Randy was our first class bartender and was knowledgeable polite &friendly PGH tortas was the food truck for the new fangs beer release and they provided a five star taco experience - duck carnitas, rabbit tinga, gator po boy, nopales and beef tongue. All juicy choices featuring the perfect combo of acid, fat& sweet heat.
The beers featured the marzen - best Oktoberfest of the year. We went home with some coffee porter &the scent of the head alone was transformative.
The owners and brew masters work hard and it shows in the quality. We will absolutely return. Thanks 4pts!“

“very friendly with a good selection of beers.“

“Really odd experience. At times our server was great and attentive and other times she vanished for extended periods of time. I waited almost 10 minutes with an empty beer before she came back. I ordered the bratwurst and when it came there was no sauerkraut. I waited a for minutes for our server to come back but she didn't until I was almost done with it so I told her to forget it and I'll just finish it. The Mrs had a pasta dish, shrimp and sausage Cajun style and it was delicious, I would order that next time.“

“yoho’s Yinzide Out Wednesday Live Music performances each week from 6:00 to 9:00. Great live music, Great staff, Great food.“

“Cinderlands is a great place! Convenient to city visitors and residents in the vibrant Strip District, it’s great staff, beer, and food are their calling card.“

“Full Pint is a great spot in Wexford to get local craft beer, also a great line up of local live music. Stop in!“
