Major League Baseball is back, and Opening Day is April 8th. What goes well with baseball? Beer of course!
We rounded up some baseball-themed Pennsylvania beers for you to enjoy the games with.
Burgh’ers Brewing – 1890 Lager
Burgh’ers Brewing pays homage to Pittsburgh’s very first baseball team, the “Pittsburgh Burghers”. They only played one year in 1890, and then became the Pirates. This crisp 4.7% American light lager is perfect for those hot days watching the bullpen try to hold the lead. This beer is available in cans.
