The Top 5 Oktoberfest Beers in Pennsylvania

The Top 5 Oktoberfest Beers in Pennsylvania

As the air turns crisp, leaves shift to fiery reds and golds, and pretzels, bratwurst, and lederhosen begin appearing across Pennsylvania, one thing is certain: Oktoberfest season is here. And with it comes a flood of Märzens and Festbiers—those malty, toasty, smooth lagers that define the season.

Pennsylvania, with its deep German brewing roots, doesn’t just celebrate Oktoberfest—it owns it. From Philly to Pittsburgh, Hershey to Pottsville, PA breweries churn out some of the best seasonal lagers you’ll find anywhere in the country. Whether you’re a malt-forward Märzen loyalist or a fan of the lighter, crisp Festbier, the Keystone State has you covered.

So, grab your stein, dust off your dirndl, and let’s dive into the Top 5 Oktoberfest Beers in Pennsylvania (plus a few honorable mentions).

The Top 5 Oktoberfest Beers in Pensnylvania Are….

(See our recent article: Embracing the Season: The Return of Fall Beers)

1. Tröegs Oktoberfest Lager (Hershey, PA)

Tröegs doesn’t do anything halfway, and their Oktoberfest Lager proves it. Brewed with a traditional decoction mash (a rarity in American brewing), this Märzen glows copper in the glass and bursts with notes of caramel, toasted bread, and gentle floral hops. At 6.1% ABV, it’s rich without being heavy, making it dangerously drinkable by the liter.

This one isn’t just a local favorite—it consistently earns national praise as one of the best American Oktoberfest-style lagers brewed today. If you’re hitting Tröegs’ beer hall this fall, a stein of this paired with their pretzels and beer cheese is mandatory.

2. Human Robot Festbier (Philadelphia, PA)

If Tröegs is about tradition-meets-accessibility, Human Robot is about absolute technical precision. Their Festbier, brewed with a double decoction mash and lagered cold and long, is a masterpiece of restraint and balance.

Think: buttered crackers, honey sweetness, and a touch of noble hop bitterness that keeps it endlessly refreshing. Beer geeks have been raving about it for years, and Untappd scores back that up—it’s one of the highest-rated Festbiers in the country.

Pro tip: If you’re in Philly this fall, don’t just drink it—drink it fresh at Human Robot’s biergarten.

3. Victory Festbier (Downingtown, PA)

Victory has been around long enough to be considered a Pennsylvania institution, and their Festbier is a shining example of why. It balances malt depth (think chocolate, caramel, and dried fruit) with an earthy hop character that makes it richer than most Oktoberfests.

Wine Enthusiast gave it a 90-point rating, and for good reason—it’s hearty, bold, and just different enough to stand out from the crowd. If you’re into darker, maltier lagers that still stay drinkable, this is your pick.

4. Boneshire Brew Works Pigtoberfest (Harrisburg, PA)

Harrisburg’s own Boneshire Brew Works has quietly built a reputation for balanced, flavorful lagers, and their Pigtoberfest is no exception. Malty and smooth, with just enough hop bitterness to keep it crisp, this beer captures the essence of the German Märzen style. It’s a perfect companion for bratwurst, pretzels, and festive gatherings.

5. Penn Brewery Oktoberfest (Pittsburgh, PA)

Over in the Steel City, Penn Brewery has been flying the German beer flag for decades. Their Oktoberfest has the pedigree to prove it, too—it’s a Great American Beer Festival medal winner.

Brewed with caramel and roasted malts, it’s a clean, medium-bodied lager that leans traditional. At 5.5% ABV, it’s smooth, approachable, and exactly the kind of beer you want in your stein while polka bands play and sausages hit the grill.

Honorable Mentions 🍂

Pennsylvania has so many stellar Oktoberfests, narrowing it to just five is almost unfair. A few more worth tracking down this fall:

Love City Brewing – Love Fest (Philadelphia): Weyermann malts give it a nutty, bready character with a kiss of caramel sweetness.
Neshaminy Creek – Creekfestbier (Croydon): Toasty, crisp, and bone-dry—a Festbier lover’s dream.
Sly Fox Brewing – Oktoberfest Lager (Malvern): Caramel and spice on the nose, crisp and malty on the palate. A yearly favorite.
Yuengling Oktoberfest (Pottsville, PA): Crisp large scale Oktoberfest

Final Thoughts

Oktoberfest season in Pennsylvania is something special. Between its rich German-American brewing heritage and its thriving modern craft beer scene, the state produces lagers that stand toe-to-toe with the best from Munich.

Whether you’re looking for tradition (Tröegs, Penn), precision (Human Robot), wide availability (Yuengling), or malt-forward richness (Victory), there’s an Oktoberfest beer here for you.

So, this September and October, skip the pumpkin spice latte and raise a stein of copper-colored lager instead. Prost!

Cincinnati Craft Legend Listermann Brews Its Final Chapter

Cincinnati Craft Legend Listermann Brews Its Final Chapter

When a place you’ve been raising pints at for years closes its doors—without much warning—it cuts deeper than you’d expect. That’s exactly what happened on—and yes, I’ll say it—Saturday, August 16, 2025. That day marked the final pouring for one of Cincinnati’s most storied staples in the craft beer world: Listermann Brewing Company.

A Sudden Farewell, A Lifetime of Flavor

On Friday, August 15, 2025, the taproom, nestled at 1621 Dana Avenue in Evanston, posted a heartfelt message:

“Tomorrow, Saturday, August 16th, will be our final day of operations. We are deeply grateful to our amazing staff, loyal customers and community… You’ve been part of our story, and it’s been an honor to share our beer and our space with you.”

They didn’t lay out a reason why they had to close—and that silence echoes even louder in this town. The beer scene here has taken hit after hit lately—Brews like Humble Monk, 16 Lots, Taft’s, and even BrewDog Cincinnati have faded from the taplines this year alone.

What Made Listermann More Than Just a Brewery

To really get what we’ve lost, you have to go way back. The name “Listermann” started as Dan Listermann’s homebrewing gear business in 1991—not as a brewery, but a beacon for homebrewers, who’d gather, curious and tinkering. By 1994, it evolved into a full-blown homebrew shop; and by 2008, they’d flashed a brewery license and launched the Listermann Brewing Company on that same Dana Ave campus.

This place was a workshop, a classroom, a microbrewery, and a community hub—all rolled into one. Any local brewer you ask? There’s a good chance they got their first gear, their first guidance, their first inspiration right here.

Passing the Torch—Then the Lights Go Out

Founders Dan and Sue Listermann stepped back in 2023, handing the reins to Terrie and Steve Ipson. In January 2024, the new team opened a taproom kitchen—adding food, giving explorers one more reason to stay.

It all seemed like a path to longevity. But then August 2025 arrives, and bam: the beer stops flowing.

What Now for the Craft Community?

With Listermann gone, what’s next for Cincinnati’s beer lovers? We’ve lost a pioneer—but maybe, just maybe, that vacuum will spark the next wave. There’s a lot of spirit, literally and figuratively, in this town. I still believe—knowing this crowd—the drought won’t last. In the meantime, let’s raise a final pint to Listermann: to the memories, the homebrews born here, the casual chats over new taps, and the sense that this place, in its unassuming glory, wrote a massive chapter in our local beer history.

For More Information on Listermann Brewing Company

The following comes via Untappd.

Listermann Brewing Company is listed as a brew pub, from Cincinnati, Ohio. Since its already considered “closed” by Untappd, it has 0 listed for unique beers, but it does have over 395,000 ratings, with a global average of 3.97 (as of 8.16.25). Their Untappd description reads: “Listermann Brewing Company is a neighborhood brewery and home brew supply store that focuses on innovative beer and the local community. The home brew store has been operating since 1991 and the brewery has been producing a variety of award-winning beers since 2008. The taproom boasts an inviting, friendly character and historic charm. Come for the beer, stay for the people.”

YAH Brew and Cartel Brewing Team Up to Revive Middletown Space with Collaborative Venture

B. Kline — Thu, 07 Aug 2025 21:46:22 +0000

YAH Brew and Cartel Brewing Team Up to Revive Middletown Space with Collaborative Venture

YAH Brew and Cartel Brewing and Blending have teamed up on the newly acquired space in Middletown – the old Tattered Flag location at 1 S Union St, Middletown, PA 17057. (See our recent article about YAH Brewing acquiring the Tattered Flag space.) (Or the Tower Investments press release on it here – YAH Brew Preser.) Cartel Brewing and Blending has also made expansion growth of their own, by announcing their second location – The Safe House – coming to Manheim, PA, opening in late Fall / Winter of 2025.

Cartel Brewing and YAH Brew team up over the Tattered Flag location in Middletown

Cartel Brewing and Blending’s Social Media Announcement

The announcement came via Cartel Brewing and Blending’s social media earlier today:

FUN ANNOUNCEMENT:

For the last few months, we’ve been working on a pretty rad joint venture project with our friends at YAH Brew…

We are stoked to announce that we have the keys and begun the next stage of bringing this amazing space back to life in Middletown, PA!

We will launch a multifaceted community space that will allow us to use the brewery for both of our brands as well as our collaborative new brand and taproom. We also plan to create a cooperative production facility for other breweries to share and expand their brewing and canning needs and foresee a distillery brand arising in 2026….

All in all, we can’t be more excited about this project and partnering with Justin and Aimee from YAH Brew. More details to follow in the coming weeks…..

– Cartel Brewing and Blending Facebook Post

YAH Brew and Cartel Brewing and Blending Team Up

Two of Central PA’s most creative brewing minds are joining forces to breathe new life into a familiar location in Dauphin County — and beer fans have plenty to be excited about.

Back in July, YAH Brew made waves when they announced plans to take over the former home of Tattered Flag Brewery at 1 South Union Street in Middletown, Pennsylvania. The 5,000-square-foot space, which had sat idle since Tattered Flag closed its doors in late 2023 due to rising inflation and labor challenges, is now being transformed into something bold, collaborative, and community-driven.

But the story just got even more interesting.

Earlier today, Cartel Brewing & Blending announced via social media that they’re officially partnering with YAH Brew on the Middletown project — turning the solo endeavor into a full-blown joint venture between two of the region’s most experimental breweries.

“For the last few months, we’ve been working on a pretty rad joint venture project with our friends at YAH Brew,” Cartel wrote in a Facebook post. “We are stoked to announce that we have the keys and begun the next stage of bringing this amazing space back to life in Middletown, PA!”

According to both breweries, the revitalized space will serve multiple purposes: an event venue, a collaborative brewing hub, and a future home for a distilling operation.

What to Expect from the New YAH Brew x Cartel Project

Event Venue – The updated venue is designed to host a variety of gatherings, from retirement parties and birthdays to corporate events and wedding receptions. With a large open floor plan and Yah Brew’s nostalgic flair, the space promises a unique, relaxed vibe for private functions.
Shared Brewing & Canning Facility – In a move that underscores the cooperative spirit of craft beer, the site will also operate as a production facility for both Yah Brew and Cartel Brewing, helping both brands expand their brewing and canning capabilities.
Future Distillery in 2026 – Cartel hinted at an exciting long-term vision: the creation of a new distillery brand housed within the same space. While details are still emerging, this points toward a multi-beverage future for the Middletown location.

A Second Life for a Storied Building

For locals and longtime fans of the Central PA beer scene, the building at 1 S. Union Street holds a lot of history. Once home to Tattered Flag Brewery — a veteran-owned favorite that helped put Middletown on the craft beer map — the space now enters a new era with two ambitious and community-focused breweries at the helm.

This collaboration is more than just a shared address; it’s a symbol of what can happen when independent brewers unite, pool their resources, and think beyond the pint glass.

We’ll be keeping tabs on developments as the project evolves — including grand opening dates, beer releases, and any sneak peeks into the distilling side of things.

Want to Book the Event Space?

Looking to host a wedding reception, retirement party, or company event in a unique beer-forward setting? Yah Brew and Cartel are already taking reservations for the event space. Stay tuned for updates via their social media channels or visit their websites directly.

Two Rivers Brewing Announces Closure of Original Location After 13 Years

Located at 116 PA-313, Quakertown, PA 18951, Two Rivers Brewing’s taproom is part of the Trolley Barn Public Market.

After more than a decade of serving up craft beer and comfort food, Two Rivers Brewing Company has announced it will be closing the doors to its original brewpub. Co-owner Troy Reynard shared the news in a heartfelt social media post, expressing gratitude to the community for 13 years of support and patronage.

Known for its welcoming atmosphere and locally brewed beers, the brewery has been a staple in the region’s craft beer scene. While the flagship location will be shutting down, operations at the brewery’s Trolley Barn Public Market site in Quakertown—launched in 2020—will continue under new management starting September 1.

The Trolley Barn Public Market’s owner is set to take over brewing operations, initially using contracted production from the Sherman Street facility. This setup will remain in place until the new management secures a brewing license of their own.

The following comes via Untappd.

Two Rivers Brewing Company is listed as a brewpub from Easton, PA. They have 435 unique beers and over 56,000 ratings with a global average rating of 3.73 (as of 8.5.25). Their Untappd description is currently blank.

Two Rivers Brewing Closing Easton Location

B. Kline — Tue, 05 Aug 2025 22:22:05 +0000

Two Rivers Brewing Closing Easton Location

Two Rivers Brewing has announced on their social media accounts today that they are closing their Easton location for retail sales. Located at 542 Northampton St, Easton, PA 18042, the brewpub was recently recognized and used in a J. G. Wentworth commercial.

Two Rivers Brewing Announcement

Their announcement reads:

It is with a heavy heart that we are announcing that we are closing our Easton location for retail sales at the end of business on August 17. We are proud of the memories made and friendships formed over the years. We’d like to thank our wonderful staff for all their hard work and dedication over the years. We are so proud of their achievements over the years, numerous World Beer Cup and Great American Beer Fest medals, Pennsylvania Farm Show and Allentown Fair ribbons, as well as Best of the Valley awards for Best Burger and Best Fries. We have had the honor of saving one of the most architecturally interesting buildings in Easton, lovingly restoring the old girl and fortifying it for the future. It’s been our joy to witness celebrations of birthdays, anniversaries, and weddings. We’d like to thank our customers who have supported us over the years, from our Founders Club members, our Speakeasy Fellowship members, and everyone who showed up week after week. We’re proud of the people we’ve highlighted and causes supported through Great Beers for Great Causes beer releases.

Thank you for your support.

No word has been made about their Quakertown location – located at 116 PA-313, Quakertown, PA 18951 (The Two Rivers Brewing Taproom). (Located in the Trolley Barn Public Market.)

The above quote says “retail sales” and specifically lists the Easton location, however their discussion of their beers raises speculation that they may stop brewing. We will keep everyone updated with more information when available.

Brewery Brewing and Blending is Expanding with the Safe House Opening in Manheim PA

Cartel Brewing and Blending is expanding into Manheim PA with the opening of their brand new location – The Safe House. Which will be located at 26 E High St, Manheim, PA 17545.

The future home of the Safe House by Cartel Brewing and Blending

They are elevated dive bar, a public house, “a local spot that is welcome to all, a tribute to our past and present that will be part of our future, a concept that is lacking but desired, a small footprint in an underserved part of our great county, where affordable bar food and beverage takes priority, where prices may flirt with more nostalgic times, where over 8,000 locals can call home and many more can come visit whenever they please

– Cartel Brewing and Blending

This will be their second location. After they recently moved out of their old location (now the home of Truth Beer) and moved into the former Thirst and Hunger location.

The future Safe House (photo courtesy of Cartel Brewing and Blending)

Cartel Brewing is revitalizing one of the most historic buildings in Manheim—the town’s original firehouse. To preserve its character, the brewery is partnering with the local historical board to ensure the renovation respects the building’s legacy. Township officials have been supportive throughout the process, even stepping in to streamline approvals and offer assistance where needed.

The upcoming taproom, named The Safe House, aims to deliver a laid-back, welcoming vibe. Designed to accommodate between 40 and 60 guests, the space will feature a 14-seat bar and a compact but satisfying menu—expect options like paninis, smash burgers, and possibly Philly cheesesteaks. Outdoor seating is also in the works, and Cartel is excited to bring back affordable pours, with pints potentially priced at just $2–$3.

Although there won’t be brewing equipment on-site, all the beer served at The Safe House will be brewed fresh at Cartel’s main location in Lancaster, located at 920 Landis Avenue.

Expect a late Fall / Winter 2025 opening date for their newest venue.

THE SAFE HOUSE will be an extension of us. Executed in the best possible way. An elevated dive bar, a Public House, a local spot that is welcome to all, a tribute to our past and present that will be part of our future, a concept that is lacking but desired, a small footprint in an underserved part of our great county, where affordable bar food and beverage takes priority , where prices may flirt with more nostalgic times, where over 8,000 locals can call home and many more can come visit whenever they please…

Coming Fall/Winter 2025

The Science Behind Terpenes: What Craft Beer and Cannabis Have in Common

Aperture Team — Sat, 19 Jul 2025 00:00:41 +0000

The Science Behind Terpenes: What Craft Beer and Cannabis Have in Common

(Please note this is a guest post written by carolinahempcafe.com with the Aperture Team. All information herein is provided by them.)

Walk into your local brewery and take a deep whiff – there’s a good chance that the citrusy haze, piney punch, or dank earthiness in the air doesn’t just come from hops.

Terpenes, the aromatic compounds responsible for the flavor and scent of both craft beer and cannabis, are the shared language of these two indulgences.

Whether you’re a hop head or a seasoned toker, understanding terpenes can reveal a vibrant intersection where the two meet.

Cannabis and Hop plant leaves

What Are Terpenes?

Terpenes are naturally occurring aromatic compounds found in many plants, but they’re especially concentrated in cannabis and hops, two close botanical cousins. These compounds give plants their distinct smells and contribute to their effects.

Linalool, for instance, lends lavender its calming scent. Pinene gives pine trees – and certain cannabis strains and hops – their sharp, woodsy aroma.

In cannabis, terpenes don’t just shape aroma and taste. They interact with cannabinoids like THC and CBD to produce what’s called the entourage effect, a phenomenon where compounds work synergistically to create a more balanced and beneficial overall experience.

Similarly, in beer, terpenes from hops influence not only aroma and taste, but also mouthfeel and even perceived bitterness.

The Cannabis–Craft Beer Connection

Hops (humulus lupulus) and cannabis (cannabis sativa) both belong to the Cannabaceae family, which explains their overlapping terpene profiles. In fact, some of the most prized hop varieties used in IPAs, such as Citra, Mosaic, and Simcoe, are rich in the same terpenes found in top-shelf cannabis strains.

Here are a few examples of shared terpenes:

Myrcene: Found in both mangoes and cannabis, it gives a musky, herbal aroma. In beer, it contributes to earthy, slightly fruity notes.
Limonene: Bright and citrusy. In cannabis, it often appears in sativa strains and imparts uplifting effects. In beer, it sharpens up hazy IPAs and sour ales.
Caryophyllene: Spicy and peppery. This terpene binds to CB2 receptors in the body, giving it anti-inflammatory potential. In beer, it shows up in saisons and darker ales.
Pinene: As the name suggests, it smells like pine needles and is prominent in West Coast IPAs and strains like Jack Herer.

Terpene-Driven Pairings: Beer and Bud

Pairing cannabis and beer isn’t just about chasing a high or a buzz.

It’s about layering flavors, aromas, and even effects to create a fuller, more flavorful sensory experience.

Think of it like pairing wine with cheese or coffee with dessert – if you get it right, both elevate each other.

1. Citrusy IPA + Limonene-Dominant Pre-Roll

Try pairing a hazy, citrus-heavy IPA (like a New England-style IPA with Citra or Amarillo hops) with a limonene-rich strain such as Super Lemon Haze or Tangie. The citrusy zing of both the beer and bud harmonize beautifully, offering an uplifting, energetic vibe.

Try a THCA pre-roll with a citrus-forward profile from Carolina Hemp Cafe for the ultimate sunny afternoon combo.

2. Dank Double IPA + Myrcene Bomb

If you enjoy heavy-hitting flavor, a West Coast double IPA with notes of resin, pine, and funk will go hand-in-hand with a strong indica featuring high myrcene levels. These combos can be sedating, perfect for winding down in the evening.

3. Spiced Saison + Caryophyllene-Packed Bud

Saisons often feature spice and peppery notes, which match beautifully with cannabis strains rich in caryophyllene. This pairing has a culinary edge – think black pepper, cloves, and roasted herbs. Great for an early evening tasting session or pairing with grilled food.

4. Sour Ale + Floral or Herbal Strain

Sour beers, especially fruited sours and goses, work well with lighter, more floral cannabis strains that won’t overwhelm the delicate tartness. Look for strains like Lavender or Jack Herer and a gose brewed with fruit like passionfruit or hibiscus.

Tips for Enjoying Both Responsibly

Cannabis and alcohol both influence your central nervous system, so combining them requires some thought and moderation. Here’s how to do it properly:

Start Low and Go Slow: Begin with low-ABV beers and lower-potency cannabis (like THCA flower or THCA pre-rolls). Ease your way in to appreciate the experience, not just the effect.
Time Your Consumption: Consider spacing them out – smoke or vape first, then sip your beer. You’ll have a better sense of how each is affecting you.
Eat Something: Pairings don’t have to stop at beer and bud. Add food – like a savory charcuterie board, a salty pretzel, or sweet dark chocolate – to anchor the flavors and keep your head clear.
Stay Hydrated: Cannabis can dry your mouth. Alcohol dehydrates you. Water should be your best friend during any session.
Know the Law: Public consumption of cannabis is still illegal in most areas. Always check local regulations before lighting up.

Terpene Tourism: The Future of Beer and Bud Culture

As legalization spreads and craft culture continues to explode, we’re seeing a rise in “terpene tourism.” Think cannabis and beer tasting events, aroma workshops, and hybrid venues offering both in a curated environment. Some dispensaries even label terpene profiles as clearly as breweries label IBU and hop varieties.

This is especially true in states like California, Oregon, and Colorado where the craft beer and cannabis industries coexist legally. Brands are already collaborating, using hemp-derived terpenes to flavor non-alcoholic beers and creating co-branded experiences for educated consumers.

And on the East Coast, brands like Carolina Hemp Cafe are starting to bring that same elevated culture to the South. Whether you’re looking for an infused drink, a terpene-rich pre-roll, or just some solid education, they’re helping redefine what it means to enjoy hemp.

Wrapping It Up

Terpenes are the bridge between cannabis and craft beer – a shared aromatic language that invites us to explore deeper, more meaningful flavor experiences.

Whether you’re pairing a piney IPA with a rich THCA flower strain or just enjoying a lemony sativa on a hot day with a citrus lager, the goal is the same: to slow down, tune in, and taste every note.

So next time you’re cracking open a cold one, consider rolling something up to match. The world of aroma and flavor is bigger (and more fun!) when you let both plants speak.

Yuengling 1829 Bar & Grill Set to Open at Harrisburg International Airport

A Landmark Opening for Yuengling at HIA

Harrisburg International Airport (HIA) recently announced the upcoming debut of the Yuengling 1829 Bar & Grill, slated to open by Labor Day. This exciting venture offers flyers and beer enthusiasts alike a unique opportunity to sample Yuengling’s storied brews and classic fare just steps from their gate. The new establishment will not only serve a full range of Yuengling’s celebrated beers on tap and in bottles but also pair them with a thoughtfully crafted bar and grill menu.

Why Yuengling Brewery Is a Craft Beer Icon

Historic Roots—America’s Oldest Brewery

Founded in 1829 by David G. Yuengling in Pottsville, Pennsylvania, Yuengling Brewery has long been synonymous with American brewing tradition. Remaining family-owned across six generations, the brewery expertly blends old-world craftsmanship with modern innovation.

Expanding Reach & Market Impact

Yuengling is not only the oldest operating brewery in the U.S., but also the country’s largest craft brewery by sales volume. Despite industry challenges and competition from macro-brewers, Yuengling’s approachable lagers and ales continue to win new fans, gaining market share even against national giants.

Signature Beers to Enjoy at the Airport

Visitors to the Yuengling 1829 Bar & Grill can expect to experience the brewery’s flagship pours, including:

Traditional Lager: A rich amber lager with roasted caramel malt and balanced hopping—synonymous with “lager” in much of Pennsylvania
Light Lager: Lower in calories, but full-flavored and crisp.
Black & Tan: A flavorful blend of 60% Dark Brewed Porter and 40% Premium Beer.
Golden Pilsner: A modern pilsner with a blend of Hallertau and Saaz hops.
FLIGHT: Yuengling’s low-cal, low-carb beer for modern palates.
Other classics like Lord Chesterfield Ale and Premium Pilsner round out the offerings

Experience & Amenities

Travelers can look forward to a destination that celebrates not only excellent beer, but also Pennsylvania’s hospitality:

Historical Beer Selection: Enjoy brews nearly two centuries in the making.
Locally-Inspired Cuisine: The menu is expected to showcase regional favorites and classic American fare.
Unique Environment: The bar and grill will be designed to immerse guests in Yuengling’s heritage.
Convenient for Flyers: Located inside HIA, making craft beer accessible to travelers from across the country

About Yuengling’s Legacy

Since its earliest days as Eagle Brewery in Pottsville, Yuengling has persevered through Prohibition, economic hardships, and intense market competition. Its ability to maintain consistency, quality, and independence has helped the brewery earn a loyal following and a prominent place in the American craft beer movement.

Production: Multiple facilities, including the original Pottsville site and a Tampa, Florida brewery.
Recognition: Frequently ranked as America’s largest craft brewer.
Family-Owned: Now under the leadership of Richard Yuengling Jr., the brewery continues to innovate while honoring tradition

Overview of Harrisburg International Airport (HIA)

Pine Creek Spirits Closing

B. Kline — Sun, 29 Jun 2025 14:08:20 +0000

Pine Creek Spirits Announce Closing

Pine Creek Spirits, located in Elizabethtown PA, in what was at one time the Funk Brewing taproom (see Funk Brewing Fire). (See also: Funk Brewing Taproom closing and Pine Creek Spirits Taking Over.) Located at 28 S Market St, Elizabethtown, PA 17022, the spirits taproom is now permanently closed.

Pine Creek Spirits Logo

Pine Creek Spirits announced on their Instagram post that they will be officially closed, going forward from today.

Their post today reads:

After taking a step back, we have to face the reality that we do not have the ability or resources to reopen. We’re incredibly proud of the team that we had over the years. They fought through a pandemic, a fire, and a failed business partnership. Many people would have thrown in the towel after one of those obstacles, but they perservered over many years to keep fighting for our business to stay alive.

Thank you also to all of our customers. We got to know many of you over the years and you were awesome to us. It makes it that much harder to close the doors. We hope you had as much fun as we did and hopefully we’ll see all of you down the road.

–Pine Creek Spirits (Instagram Post – June 29th, 2025)

They previously recently posted this on social media as well:

Sorry everyone, we are taking a week to reorganize and won’t be open. We hope to see everyone at the beginning of next week!

-Pine Creek Spirits (Facebook Post – June 23rd, 2025)

So it looks like they are officially closed. Which is a shame, as its a wonderful location, and a great spot in Elizabethtown. Perhaps a new taproom will go in there, possibly a craft brewery taking over the spot, like how it used to be Funk Brewery’s taproom. Who knows. But we’ll keep you updated if anything does happen with the spot, so keep your eyes peeled on the blog. Cheers.

Going back in time to the 90s in Mount Joy: The Fresh Brews of Mount Joy Brewfest

AmyMWolfe — Mon, 28 Apr 2025 20:32:39 +0000

Going back in time to the 90s in Mount Joy: The Fresh Brews of Mount Joy Brewfest

or – we took a trip to a brewfest and had a ‘kickin’ good time, one that was rad to the max!

Tasting cups from The Fresh Brews of Mount Joy brewfest

VIP Beerfest tickets –Check

Babysitter secured –Check

Uber ordered –Let’s Go!

We are ready to have a good time. We made our way to the Fresh Brews of Mount Joy hosted by Yah Brew Hershey, Yah Brew Mount Joy and Voyage Mount Joy. This was also part of a fundraiser with part of the proceeds benefiting “Donegal Athletic Club” which helps support the needs of our local athletes.

Like all things YAH Brew style, it hit heavy on the 90s nostalgia. Even each brewery announcement on social media was doing a nostalgic reference to the “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” throwback. And yes, I have had that song in my head while writing this entire article!

It was only the day of the event I took notice to the wear your best 90s themed attire. I couldn’t think of anything that fit this goal so I went with my fav beer shirt. My baby daddy luckily received a Homer Simpson T shirt for Christmas from a wonderful woman, so he wore that.

(See our article: The Fresh Brews of Mount Joy – Upcoming Brewfest on April 26th, 2025)

Even one of the gals pouring beer quizzed us. “ I came to drop bombs. I got more rhymes than the bible’s got psalms” Who is the artist? I can immediately guessed “biggie”. I heard it in his voice when I repeated it in my head. But I was very wrong…”House of Pain, Jump Around.” So now that song is in your head, eh?

What got our attention to attend this event despite all the other events was the stellar lineup.

The brewery lineup for the Fresh Brews brewfest

After walking up and down the blocked off street the Beerfest looked like everyone was in a hustle to get stuff setup but folks still taking time to chat and catch up. I didn’t get the impression that everyone knew each other, although we ran into a lot of familiar faces, but everyone there was genuinely into the beer they were drinking. A large number of the breweries attending have done collab brews together. It was like hanging out with all your beer friends while pretending the 90s weren’t more than 25 years together!

We had VIP tickets so that meant that VIP time was during the downpour. I almost felt like I was playing frogger; jumping from tent to tent to get more beer pours at my quickest pace to avoid getting drenched. But, let’s be honest, if you are giving me beer the rain doesn’t matter that much.

After the Facebook post and a friendly Beerfest goer we decided the bourbon barrel aged stout from Voodoo Brewing company was going to be our first taste of The Fresh Brews of Mount Joy. Black Magick indeed lived up to hype.

If you have been reading The Beer Thrillers for any amount of time, I think you know by now we know how to get a Beerfest started. This one comes in at a %13 ABV. It gives that slight boozy flavor but then finishes off smoothly. There is some definite magick going on with this beer!

It wasn’t long until I needed some food to soak up the beer and our first Stop was Halo’s Eatery. We split the Halo Bowl. It was delicious and paired nicely with several of the beers we enjoyed.

It wasn’t long after I couldn’t stop drooling over the bacon on a stick I saw my other Beerfest goers enjoying. We could hardly wait to chow down on the bacon and it was still very hot. Again, many beers were enjoyed while enjoying Bacon on a stick.

The kicker to the whole event was the 90s cover band. Every other person there would catch a few tunes and immediately start belting our lyrics that we could remember.

Before catching our Uber home we grabbed some Hoagies to go at Hulk Hoagies (the YAH Brewing attached hoagie shop that they run in Mount Joy), then went home to enjoy them on the coach. We ordered Sweet Chin Music (spicy) and the Rock Bottom.

Photo Dump

Here’s a big ol’ photo dump from the brewfest. Courtesy of Amy’s excellent photography skills!

I still have that song in my head!

Drink More Beer!

Fresh Brews Brewfest

Ben jumping in here. Just want to give a big shout out to Justin and everyone from YAH Brew for all the hard work they did. The brewfest was absolutely fantastic. Rain or no rain, it was a blast, and we got to hang out with lots of great people over the course of the day, and had some “da bomb” beers. Kudos to all involved for such a job well done!
