14 Best Craft Breweries near Upper Saint Clair

“Great food. Good drink choices both kids and adults. Had a couple snafus with one of the meals and the check but all and all, good experience. It is on the expensive side tho. $10 for a beer, $3.75 for a pop so it adds up quick. 3 ppl, 2 app, 2 beers, 1 pop and three dinners $115. Granted one of the meals was a full rack of baby back ribs but you take that whole person's dinner off and it would have still been $80+ for 2 ppl.“

“We had a tour last week with our beer guide Kevin. He was extremely knowledgeable about all beers and the history of the area, very friendly and just really enjoyable as a tour guide. We went to Old Thunder in Blawnox, Strange Roots in Millvale and Allegheny City on the North Side - each with its own ambiance and tasty brews. We'd be happy to go on another tour with friends sometime!“

“A friendly, welcoming atmosphere focusing on the local community with amazing beer. They have a delicious hand made woodfired menu that changes seasonally so there's always something new to look forward to, also the very best pizza in town. Its outdoor seating only, but they have live music on the weekends weather permitting. The staff is very friendly & pets are welcome. They have something for everyone. Stop in soon Wed- Sat, & hopefully I'll see yinz there“

“The first time I went here I thought the beers weren't great, but the second time was a lot better. Excellent location, in any case; good place to chat with friends. The music is a tad loud, that said, but I guess it makes conversations more private for some who want to talk loud? Who knows.“

“A fun and eclectic brewery in Verona. Inner Groove's ~thing~ is having a great collection of records which are always spinning. It added a nice ambiance while sitting at the bar and whatever's playing is a good conversation starter with the bartenders who are really friendly and helpful. I felt the tap list is super IPA heavy, which I'm not as into anymore personally. But if you are, you'll love it! I tried a blonde ale and the rainbow sherbet sour (which legit tasted like melted rainbow sherbet). They were both good. I look forward to checking out this space again in the summer. It's really close to the river so I'm sure it's even better when you can spend time outside.“

“I recently visited Four Points Brewing and was thoroughly impressed! This hidden gem in Pittsburgh is a haven for craft beer lovers. From the moment I walked in, the welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff made the experience delightful. They have an impressive selection of beers, with each offering its own unique and rich flavors that cater to both aficionados and those new to the craft beer scene.The brewery’s space is both cozy and trendy, perfect for a casual hangout with friends or a relaxing solo visit. What stood out to me was their commitment to quality and the passion for brewing that was evident in each pint. Four Points doesn’t just serve beer; they curate an experience that celebrates the craft.The location at 919 Western Avenue is convenient, and their digital presence, reflected in their sleek website, makes it easy to stay updated on their latest creations and events. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, I highly recommend stopping by Four Points Brewing for a pint of their finest.“

“What a great afternoon we had at Southern Tier Brewing Co. We were visiting from Baltimore before a Pirates game. Our waitress, Amanda was awesome!!! It was quite busy but it felt like we were her only customers. The drinks and food were great. Will definitely come back when we visit again!“

“Excellent beer and so many to choose from. Always something fun going on, game nights like cornhole, disc golf putting, music trivia etc. Live music on the weekends, pinball, bubble hockey and indoor cornhole boards. Friendly and knowledgeable bartenders too!“

“Great pop-up experience. The service staff was very friendly and funny to chat with, and the cheesesteak-burger-thing that my partner and I split was really enjoyable. I got the new Zealand hazy to drink and was very satisfied with the pairing, and the view of the river, while not spectacular, was definitely pleasing and we enjoyed our post-dinner walk which I will lump in with the overall experience.“

“Stopped in since it was on the way to family's hotel. The bartender was great and helpful with everyone deciding on what to get. They had a nice couch area that was great for everyone to relax from their long drive to western PA. The lil one that we had with us enjoyed the people watching and the ability to stretch his legs around the table.“

“Easily one of the top breweries in the area. Not only are their beers unique and tasty, but they generally have something that will please everyone.Some of the best beers I've had have come from Hitchhiker and while their cans are good in a pinch, their on tap beers are well worth the trip.My only knock is they need to expand somewhere else with more seating and do a food menu of their own rather than relying on food trucks which can be hit or miss (can't remove a star for that since it's clear this is only a taproom) .The staff is great and attentive and let you try something so you don't get a glass of something you will hate.Getting seating here sometimes can be problematic in the winter months; but their stuff is top shelf and worth it.One of my top 5 breweries in the Greater Pittsburgh Area.“

“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!“

“Support your local brewer and get down to Insurrection Brewing in Heidelberg - right next to the police station ?. It's not a particularly large venue, nor a warm and cozy place, but they're definitely churning out some decent brews here. The barrel aged stout and west coast IPA were really very good. They've got a 3.91 (of 5) average rating on Untappd, and that's pretty good ?“
