East End Brewing Company & Trip to Pittsburgh
I'll be in that neck of the woods soon and I'm planning to stop at East End Brewing Company on Thursday. As luck would have it I'll be able to make it for Growler Hours.
Any suggestions on what to get my growler filled up with?
Just an FYI: If you don't already have an East End growler, don't bother to take your own with you. Scott can only fill up growlers (clear glass, unfortunately) with the East End name on it.
I haven't gone wrong yet with any of his beers. You get to taste everything he has available before making a purchase. Don't forget the Ugly American and Gratitude bottles, too!
I was just there last weekend. If The Bitter End is still on...buy that and nothing else. OK...the BS Stout is killer and worth it too...but...TBE is such a beautifully hoppy session brew.
I'm baaaaack and bearing er...gifts. What a great experience. I'll be posting about it soon. Loren, no Bitter End :-(, but, it was a happy ending to my trip to Pittsburgh.

I knew you guys wouldn't let me down :-) Thanks Nate!
Bottles? Sweet!

Stock up on '06 Gratitude as well.
With luck the Witte should be back this week.
Have fun!

I can't really say anything these guys haven't covered already.
I really liked the Snow Melt and its only a winter beer, so if there is any of that left, snatch it up!
