You may have noticed a little extra sawdust and concrete at Grist House lately. If you don’t know what we’re talking about, we highly recommend a visit to the Pittsburgh brewery as they continue their expansion.
The brewery is currently in the process of building a 4,000+ square foot indoor/outdoor beer garden just outside of their main brewery/ taproom in Millvale. We recently sat down with them to learn more about what locals can expect once the building is complete.
If you have ever been to the brewery you know they currently offer to-go beer sales out of a trailer parked on the side. Once this new taproom is built that trailer will be removed from the property which will allow Grist House more room to expand on its outdoor footprint.
An outdoor drinking experience has been something Grist House has always had a dedication to providing for customers to enjoy. This expanded footprint will mean the increase of more outdoor fire pits, more outdoor seating, and more live music. Making the Millvale location a true destination brewery to relax and enjoy your craft beer experience.
The new space will offer a large four-sided bar, with 16 taps per side. Once completed the overall capacity of the entire Grist House Millvale operation will be close to 500 guests. Along with this large bar, the brewery will also house a retail gift shop inside this space as well.
But, as you may know, this is not the only expansion planned for Grist House. The brewery also confirmed with us that their Collier expansion continues. Without getting into the boring details, they are working through licensing and permitting towards that space. No date is confirmed for opening, but they are hard at work on the location.
Follow the brewery on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to keep up with their growth at both Millvale and Collier.
