AGHHHHHHH!! Beer Avalanche!

Yeah this video is awesome.  I don't know what has got into me today; posting videos about people experiencing near death experiences.  Now, wait for it, wait for it...  34 seconds in $200,000 dollars worth of beer just comes crashing down and is destroyed, along with the factory worker. Enjoy!

Awesome way to review BEER

This is a review of Penn Weizen made by Penn Brewery. I just came across it on YouTube.com the other day.

So after I watched it I went and bought a six pack of it at Kazansky's Deli located in Squirrel Hill right on Murray ave. It's a crisp relaxing Hefeweizen brew that all should try.

Cheers!

Penn Oktoberfest Bier

Brewery: Pennsylvania Brewing Company

Beer: Penn Oktoberfest Bier

Style: Oktoberfest/Märzen

ABV: 4.5%

This beer is just a seasonal brew, available August through October.  It is very tasty through and through.  It's a Märzen, which is a German lager that existed before being associated with Octoberfest.  This beer very robust, and has a moderatly light roasted malt aroma.  No hops here.  It also smells like it could have a hint of caramel flavor within in it, and with just one taste you'll realize that the flavor matches the smell to a "T."  It is medium bodied and goes down easily, leaving just a hint of citrus flavor at the very end.  This is a very pleasent and happy beer; one good for drinking outside at a social, or with a good turkey dinner.

Cheers!

I'm going to drink Pennsylvania Brewing Company

Yes, you heard it correct, that is my goal this week.  I am going to try and sample every beer in current production that Pennsylvania Brewing Company makes.  I was just browsing the internet looking for some ideas and can't avoid hearing things about their Penn Weizen.  It's a bavarian-style wheat beer, which I know from experience taste absolutely amazing.  Penn Weizen has won the US National Beer tasting Championships from 2002-2007.  In 2006 it was labeled 25 Best Beers in America, according to Men's Journal magazine. I am so excited... Stay tuned for some great reviews.

Cheers!

I.C. Light, a Pittsburgh Original

ABV: 4.15%

Calories: 95

OK! I'm sure everyones thinking; of all the beers to write about why choose this one? Well, I had to stick to my roots on this one and write about a beer that has been flowing out of my backyard since 1861.  The Pittsburgh Brewing Company has been located in a neighborhood in Pittsburgh called Lawrenceville just 5 minutes away from the Strip District.  I grew up in that neighborhood, and played pee-wee football right across the street from the brewery.  This beer is great with a Primanti Bros. sandwich, and a Steelers game. 

Unfortunately in June, 2009 the brewery relocated to Latrobe, PA taking over the old Rolling Rock building.  They had to relocate because of financial issues back in 2005 causing them to file for chapter 11 bankruptcy.  Fortunately the internet site still shows the building on 34th and Liberty ave.  One last thing about the Iron City Brewing Company is that they were the first to use aluminum bottles, which are three times thicker than aluminum cans, and can keep the beer cold for up to 50 minutes longer. Awesome!!

Cheers!

Event Update!!

The 3rd Annual Octoberfest will be held at Mr. Bones this Saturday, October 24, 2009.  It will go from 5PM till 2AM.  You can expect lots of Octoberfest beer as well as other great seasonals with a pumpkin flavor.  Like I have raved about before, the food is amazing and very beer-centric.  So come down and enjoy the music, food, and of course the beer tasting.  Unfortunately I won't be able to make it; I just thought I should put the word out.
Mister Bones
