11 Best Craft Breweries near Trafford

“An excellent local brewery with a nice variety of beers to choose from which includes light ales to dark stouts. All of the food is very good, but I’d recommend the flat breads. My favorite is the pepperoni. If you are into pinball machines this place has a bunch of them. The staff is very friendly and the mug club may be worth joining if you stop by often.“

“Best brewery in Pittsburgh. Period. Great atmosphere and staff.“

“Awesome selection of fantastic beers. Super friendly. Really awesome building. Highly recommend for all. Keep on rocking!“

“I never knew this place existed and happened to come in after tasting their Red Ale at a local restaurant. Wow! We sampled 4 beers, had a couple of pints, and was astonished at the quality of the beer. Why haven't we heard of Fire Whistle before?! We will be back. Do yourself a favor and try their beers... all right here, under-the-radar, and basically un-recognized in Elizabeth!“

“Huge selection of beers and some ciders. Great laid back vibe. This is a place where people come to have a couple drinks and unwind. The owners Tim and John are very kind people who take care of their staff. Place is always clean and welcoming to everyone. Kid friendly atmosphere that you can bring outside food to. Awesome location across from the Lamp Theater. New Crescent does have live entertainment and food trucks from time to time as well. Can't miss place in the heart of downtown Irwin.“

“Among my favorite breweries in Pittsburgh, and a great addition to the growing brew-culture in Verona / Oakmont area. They are unafraid to experiment with bold, delicious, and unique flavor profiles (I'm looking at you, Sichuan Peppercorn Rice Lager), but have all the staples across the spectrum of types of beer.

Great spot for a quiet hang, great beer, and friendly staff and patrons. Perfect addition to downtown Verona.“

“Visited the first time tonight! Stopped for the LH Pour Tour 5.0 originally. Absolutely loved it! Great atmosphere and great beers! Will definitely be back.“

“Pretty crazy backstory, but I had never been here before and my aunt won a contest to have a beer created and named after her rabbit.

We had a fairly large group there on release day, and the service was friendly and awesome.

I was particularly fond of their steel city lager, but the custom beer they made for my aunt was actually quite good. It was a cran-apple lager (which usually isn't my thing) but this one was quite drinkable.

The set-up in the back was quite picturesque. We were there in Mid-November, but I still found myself outside quite a bit enjoying the river views.

They had a partnership with a Kazak-guy in the kitchen who was another very nice fellow. I got his chicken parm sandwhich and it was 5 stars in itself. He came out and talked to us - Do not sleep on the food here.

I'm usually never in Verona, but this place in itself is a great reason to come back. It was a great day.“

“The beers were unique and the wait staff were really friendly. While they didn't not serve food the food truck on site had really good food. I never knew this place existed but now that I do, I will definitely add it to the rotation of places I go.“

“Awesome beer selection & great people.“

“Great beer! Great people!“
