East End Witte - A "Belgian White" wheat beer, gently spiced with (new!) coriander and bitter orange peel. Light bodied with hints of orange and lemon. A great beer for hot weather or for those looking for something lighter all year round. (More)
Session Ale - A limited availability series of small batch, lighter bodied, easy drinking ales with gentle malt character, mild hop bitterness, and lower alcohol levels to permit a long drinking “session”. Each batch is a unique brew in this broad style. Great on cask, and the perfect beer to spend an entire afternoon with. (More )
Big Hop IPA - Loads of Centennial and Cascade hops make this a truly American IPA, brewed to be VERY hoppy but not especially bitter, balanced with a solid Munich Malt backbone. Our flagship, and by far, our most popular beer. (More)
Fat Gary Nut Brown Ale - Once part of the Session Ale series, and now a year-round offering, this deep brown ale is surprisingly light in body and low in alcohol. It’s dark malt character and light sweetness make it a beer that can be enjoyed all afternoon. Now East End has a beer that “non-hopheads” like Gary can call their very own.
Black Strap Stout - An American Stout brewed with Black Strap Molasses and Brown Sugar - robust and roasty with notes of dark chocolate, and black coffee. Extremely dark, balanced with light sweetness, and a modest American hop flavor. (More)
Our Seasonal Beers -Available in "Tall Quarters"
Monkey-Boy - Swinging from tank to tank around here, we've come up with the perfect way to sit back and wait for Spring in Pittsburgh (which can take a while): A fresh local hefeweizen that carries a distinct banana ester profile, and crisp finish. No bananas were harmed or peeled in the brewing of this beer. It's just a little bonus that this yeast strain likes to produce for us.
Pedal Pale Ale - An American Pale Ale, crisp and hoppy with light malt sweetness and fruity esters. Hopped four times with just one hop variety, originally brewed to celebrate “Bike Fest! 2005” (Bike-Pgh's week-plus celebration of all things bicycling) and now a Summer release seasonal, with the most unique tap handle you’ve ever seen. (More)
Big Hop HARVEST Ale - Each fall, I take your year-round favorite, Big Hop IPA and do something really special to it to celebrate the September hop harvest. There’s a small window where I can get fresh-picked, undried, green, local hops to toss into the kettle. These “wet hops” provide a truly unique flavor and aroma, almost like the smell of freshly cut grass – if your lawn was completely planted with American hops! Available sometime late September/early October and lasting until it’s all gone. See pictures and descriptions of this beer being brewed here.
Snow Melt Winter Ale - A rich malty, deep ruby-red, lightly spiced (and I mean REALLY lightly) winter ale, best used for frost removal, holiday toasting, and guaranteed to clear the fog off your glasses. Look for a release right arount the first day of Winter. (Mid Decemberish until the Snow Melts in February or March... hopefully.)
The Bitter End - A "small beer" available near year's-end from the second runnings of the mash for Gratitude, a bit like a pale ale, but with a bitterness that just keeps on going and going... Since they're ready much sooner, small beers can be an excellent preview of what their bigger siblings will be like. Look for this beer in limited supply in November and December, and lasting until it's all gone.
Gratitude - A limited edition Barleywine Style Ale, brewed in November in the American tradition and hand packaged to specially commemorate the one year anniversary of the brewery. Hopefully this one will return each year. (More)
Our One-Off Beers -Available in various forms
The Ugly American -
A perfectly enjoyable classic Belgian Trippel corrupted almost beyond
recognition with a completely inappropriate amount of US hops. Only in
America can such excessive excesses be fully appreciated, celebrated,
and enjoyed...and for now, only at East End Brewing! To make this one a
little more cellar-able, and a lot more portable, it's going into the
bottle. Limited run, available starting November 4th, 2006 here at the
brewery and maybe a few select tap spots. (More)
