Penn Gold is Back



After a three-year absence, Penn Gold has returned! Penn Gold is a light golden, medium-bodied lager with a delicate hop aroma.  Like all of Penn’s beers, it’s made with two-row barley and brewed according to the strict purity standards of Reinheitsgebot.  Penn Gold will also feature bold new packaging that pays homage to Pittsburgh, our hometown.

Penn Gold is now available through distributors, bars, and restaurants. 

We have just a few seats remaining for the March 31st session of Penn Brew U!

At Penn Brew U, you can join our brewers for a guided brewery tour, sample numerous styles of beer and learn how we make them, find out how to pair the right beer with the right food, and savor a gourmet beer brunch prepared by Chef Greg Schrett. Class will be held at Penn Brewery at 12:00 noon.  Cost is $40 per person, including tax and gratuity.  Call 412-237-9400 X-100 or visit www.pennbrew.com to reserve your place now!
