The Pittsburgh Brewers Guild (PBG) plans to release the newest version of its popular Pittsburgh Brewery Guide during this year’s Three Rivers Beer Week (TRBW), which will be held April 12-16.
The Pittsburgh Brewery Guide (Version 3) will feature more than 40 Allegheny County breweries, and beer fans will be able to earn more than $70 in prizes by visiting those breweries. Prizes include:
- A black and gold “Grab a beer in the ‘Burgh” koozie (10 breweries visited)
- A Pittsburgh Brewers Guild beer glass (20 breweries visited)
- A “30 Breweries Visited” insulated refillable howler (30 breweries visited)
- A special “I Topped 40” party for all those who visit 40 or more breweries
The Guide, which will also feature new “beer trails” to accommodate the breadth of breweries across the county, will be available at most PBG member breweries while supplies last. The cost is $10 per Guide. Here are some other things beer fans should know about TRBW:
