Tasting from Brooklyn Brewery paired with chocolates from Sinful Sweets – made with beers from Brooklyn Brewery!

This event was created to bring a lot of like-minded, beer enthusiasts together for an enjoyable, and potentially educational, experience for all who participate and attend.

Our vision began with the idea of having a laid-back, mid-week, rendezvous focusing on creative, hand-crafted beers!

Participating Breweries: Great Lakes Brewing Company, Fatheads, the Church Brew Works, Rock Bottom, Full Pint Brewing Company, North Country Brewing, Arsenal Cider House, East End Brewing Company, Alley Brewing Company, Rooney’s Beer Company, Southern Tier, New Holland Brewing and All Saints Brewing Company! The BRGR food truck will also be in attendance!

Each ticket includes entrance to the festival event, samples from local home and commercial brewers, light snacks and a souvenir sample glass.

*This event is a public event. You do not have to be a TRASH member or home brewer to attend the festival. Attendees will have the opportunity to sample home brews and commercial brews.

In collaboration with the TRASH Organization and it’s members as well as many other local breweries we would like you to join us for this beer sampling to display local beer interests on two levels, principally.

First, a four hour event, starting in the evening where participating breweries, and representatives will present samples of their products.

And second, a Pro-Am “Best of Show” selection: Each commercial brewery participating will appoint one person to act as judge and submit one ballot.

Each TRASH member who enters a beer will also submit a ballot. At 9 PM a “Best of Show” announcement will be made for both a professionally brewed beer and a home brewed entry.

The TRASH member who wins the amateur ballot will then have the opportunity to recreate, and brew, their recipe at the Rivertowne Pourhouse in Monroeville. They will be credited for the beer, get to name the beer (within reason), and receive a complimentary sixth barrel of the finished product.

All ticket proceeds will benefit the Homeless Children’s Education Fund, Murrysville Medic One, Murrysville Fire Company #1!

Members of the TRASH organization will be contacted for participation and further details.

For additional questions or comments please contact: Chris at crafferty@myrivertowne.com or Megan at megan@myrivertowne.com.

From Europe you will get a time tested example of a beer style to taste next to a dynamic American Craft Beer of the same style. A score card will be provided for you to judge what you like and where you think it came from.

This is a great chance to test your palate and try a few beers and styles that you may not have tried yet.  This event is great for those who have almost tried it all and those who are looking to discover some new beer styles and break out of the mold.
