BRITSBURGH 2026 AT EEBC

One of the three markers of the end of summer for us is Britsburgh! This year will be the 12th Annual Britsburgh Festival, and we're participating once again with our Britsburgh Ale! This year, we've dipped back into one of our old recipes, one we last made ten years ago.

We'll be kicking off our part of the week with a Cask Tapping in Larimer on Tuesday the 8th, in honor of Tony Knipling, who encouraged us to start making the Britsburgh Ale and was a big part of the Pittsburgh Craft Beer scene. This will also commemorate our first full year of hand engine pours since debuting our cask system at last year's Britsburgh celebration.

Up in Mt. Lebanon, we'll be be tapping a gravity keg of this year's ale on the bar for everyone's enjoyment the following day on Wednesday, September 9th. This will be the final day to enjoy the Rock 'N Rolla T-Stop Special.

Both casks will be tapped at 6pm on their respective days and we'll have British inspired pies to go along with them, as well as plenty of 4pks for anyone looking to take some beer home with them.

On Thursday, you can look to enjoy some Britsburgh-themed rounds of Drew's Clues Trivia, and we'll be sending some a few cases of Britsburgh down to the Pop-Up for riverside pleasure.

The 2026 Britsburgh Ale is a Scottish honey heather ale brewed with UK hops, malt, & heather tips, a nod to how ale was made in the Scottish Highlands long before hops became standard, and is just 4.1% abv!
