You ever walk into a room that’s heavy with history? That’s the vibe when you step into Grist House Command, the newest spot from Grist House Craft Brewery, tucked inside what was once a Cold War-era Nike missile command center in Collier Township. This isn’t your typical craft beer launch—it’s a full-on story, a place where aviation relics meet hazy IPAs and dog-friendly patios.

Grist House Command

From Military Mission to Malt Mission

Originally built in 1957 and activated in 1960 to guard Pittsburgh from aerial threats, the massive bunker—known as PI-62—sat quietly on one of the highest points in Allegheny County for decades. Now, it’s being reborn, with the heart of a brewery beating where a radar once blinked.

Grand Opening: September 6–7

Clear your calendar: Saturday, September 6, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., marks the grand opening, followed by a Sunday session from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Expect to walk into something that’s equal parts blast from the past and cutting-edge craft beer haven.

What’s On Tap (Literally and Figuratively)

  • A 30-barrel brewhouse right on-site—hello, more core favorites and adventurous new brews

  • Four bars, each pouring from 24 taps—yes, that’s 96 taps total waiting to be conquered
  • Indoor seating for around 140, plus three dog-friendly decks to accommodate up to 300 patio-loving patrons
  • A full kitchen dishing out family recipe–inspired fare that pairs just as well with conversation as it does with the suds
  • History on display—glimpse photos, signage, and memorabilia from the bunker’s military days, where former service members are encouraged to drop by and reminisce over a pint

Why This Spot Matters

Co-owner Brian Eaton, along with partner Kyle Mientkiewicz, took over the property back in 2018, and today their vision is turning one of Pittsburgh’s hidden high-ground pieces into a landmark—beverage-style. While Grist House’s Millvale location started life in a repurposed slaughterhouse back in 2014, this new command-post-style taproom is something else—a bold next chapter with 30,000-barrel potential per year, compared to the current 2,500.

This place isn’t just beer-adjacent history—it’s built on it. And in a beer market that’s pretty crowded, there’s no better way to stand out than by honoring the past while embracing the present.

Thanks for reading, friends! Can’t wait to see you there—dog in tow, glass in hand, ready to cheers history.

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…..
🍻🍻🍻

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.

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

The Safe House

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

Pennsylvania’s craft beer scene is about to make traveling tastier. D.G. Yuengling & Son, known as America’s Oldest Brewery, is opening the Yuengling 1829 Bar & Grill at Harrisburg International Airport (HIA), bringing fresh pints and Pennsylvania pride to travelers.

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

]]> 15867 Tree House Brewing Co. Sets Its Sights on Boston Expansion https://thebeerthrillers.com/2024/11/16/tree-house-brewing-co-sets-its-sights-on-boston-expansion/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tree-house-brewing-co-sets-its-sights-on-boston-expansion Sat, 16 Nov 2024 15:48:12 +0000 https://thebeerthrillers.com/?p=15712 Tree House Brewing Co. Sets Its Sights on Boston Expansion

Tree House Brewing Co., the juggernaut of craft beer with a fiercely loyal fanbase, is about to shake up the Boston craft beer scene in a big way. Known for its hazy IPAs, luscious stouts, and now spirits, the Massachusetts-based brewery is planning a two-story taproom and brewery in the heart of Boston. Here’s everything you need to know about this exciting new chapter for Tree House—and why Boston beer lovers should be thrilled.

Tree House Brewing Company

From Curbside to Full Service at the Prudential Center

Tree House is moving beyond its current curbside pickup setup on Huntington Avenue at the Prudential Center. The new expansion will feature a full-service taproom, kitchen, and brewery. This isn’t just about enjoying Tree House beer on-site; the plan also includes serving their distilled spirits—marking a new dimension to the Tree House experience.

The details? Tree House’s proposed two-story, 35,000-square-foot space will include:

  • First Floor: Brewing and distilling operations, storage space, and a commercial sales area.
  • Second Floor: A sleek on-premise consumption area with seating for 121 guests, restrooms, and additional storage.
  • Outdoor Patio: A perfect spot to enjoy a pint with views of the bustling Prudential Center area.

The Prudential Center is located at 800 Boylston St, Boston, MA 02199.

A Glimpse at Tree House Brewing’s Growth

Tree House Brewing has come a long way from its original Charlton roots. With six operational locations across New England, including breweries in Monson, Deerfield, and Sandwich, Massachusetts, as well as a Farm Fermentory in Woodstock, Connecticut, and even a golf course taproom in Tewksbury, this brewery is a force to be reckoned with.

Their Saratoga Springs, New York, location is still under construction, but the Boston expansion signals their commitment to bringing their fan-favorite brews—and growing spirits program—closer to urban craft beer enthusiasts.

The company currently has five locations: Charlton, South Deerfield, Sandwich, Tewksbury and Woodstock, Connecticut, with Saratoga Springs under construction. The Saratoga Springs location is Tree House’s first location outside of New England and second outside of Massachusetts.

Why This Expansion Matters

Tree House isn’t just a brewery; it’s an experience. The brand has built its reputation as the largest direct-to-consumer on-premises brewer in the U.S., drawing more than 1 million visitors annually. Their move to Boston represents more than just a physical expansion—it’s about meeting their fans where they are while staying true to their ethos of delivering exceptional quality.

For Boston craft beer lovers, this means access to fresh Tree House beer and spirits without the road trip. And for the uninitiated, it’s a golden opportunity to discover why this brewery has such a cult following.

 

What’s Next for Tree House?

This isn’t Tree House’s first foray into Boston—their summer beer garden at the Prudential was a hit. Now, with a permanent space in the works, it’s clear Tree House is here to stay.

While the opening date hasn’t been confirmed, one thing is certain: this new location is poised to become a must-visit for craft beer fans in Boston and beyond.

For more information on their future plans, you can check out Tree House Brewing’s official website where they discuss that: Future Plans.

Final Thoughts

Tree House Brewing Co.’s Boston expansion is big news for the local craft beer community. With its signature beers, growing spirits line, and a prime location, this taproom promises to be an instant hit. Whether you’re a seasoned Tree House devotee or a first-time visitor, keep an eye on this space—it’s set to be a game-changer.

Rubber Soul Brewing to Open New Taproom Saturday

This Saturday – June 22nd, 2024, Rubber Soul Brewing is set to open their brand new taproom on North Hanover Street, in Hummelstown PA.

After quite a while building the brand new building (and not without some town controversy) the opening is right around the corner. The new taproom will also host their brewery in the lower level (visible from the giant parking lot). Their original location will now just be a full restaurant and taproom. (See: A Sneak Peek at Rubber Soul Brewery.)

Original Location

Rubber Soul Brewing was originally intending to open their first location in Hummelstown around March of 2020, but with the pandemic, things got pushed back, and they finally held their grand opening in October of 2020. Their current location is in the old Hummelstown Police and Borough Building, located at 136 S Hanover St, Hummelstown, PA 17036.

The current plan for the original location is that they have removed the brewing production from the location to their new brewery facility and taproom, and extending the seating and restaurant.

New Location

Rubber Soul Brewing’s New Taproom Interior (photo courtesy of Rubber Soul Brewing)

The new location is located at 17 N Hanover St, Hummelstown, PA 17036, just 0.3 miles north of their current taproom (on the same street). The new facility took over an old warehouse that formerly sat on the property, as well as Maritza’s House of Style, which they had removed for extra parking. The new taproom has their brewing facility on the lower level, and the upper level features a deck and patio area that faces the 7-11 across the street and some abandoned buildings / businesses.

Hummelstown is currently in the midst of a big tourism push, including the mayor, the governor, and other officials and board members (some of which are involved with Rubber Soul Brewing). At a town meeting where they got permission to bulldoze the Maritza House of Style (despite having full ownership technically as per law at the time), Rubber Soul Brewing stated that their parking lot would be usable by the public for events in town including the parades, carnivals, as well as parking for other Main Street square activities (2nd Friday’s, Memorial Day, etc.)

They are listed as a brew pub from Hummelstown, PA. They have 123 unique beers and over 51,000 ratings, with a global average rating of 3.77 (as of 6.21.24). Their Untappd description reads: “We are pumping the air back into the tires of Rubber Soul Brewing Company. New location, new owners, new (and familiar) beer…same old sOul! In this world of instant gratification, superficial “likes” and followers instead of friends, we think it’s more important than ever to find your sOul. See, more and more often, people are so focused on doing what’s ‘right’ by someone else’s standards, obsessed with how other view them that they forget who they are. They give and give and give, follow all of the rules and do all of the ‘right’ things, until one day they wake up and realize their empty. Spend 5 minutes on social media and you will see countless bright pictures of smiling faces, but how many of us are genuinely satisfied? We’re talking deep, within your sOul, fire blazing, satisfied. At Rubber Soul, our mission is to refuel each and every sOul that walks through our doors. Our craft beer and local vibe is the end result of people who decided to just go for it and follow their passion, regardless of the opinion of others. We look forward to welcoming you to our brewery. No judgements. No impossible standards. #NoFilter. All that we require is that you do a little sOul searching.”

Source Brewing Expanding to Manayunk

Source Brewing is expanding and adding their third location. Their newest location will be in an old 1800s bank in Manayunk, Pennsylvania. They are currently targeting a fall 2024 opening date. As of right now there’s not much else to report insofar as they have just the announcement of the location and that they will keep everyone updated via their social media accounts.

Announcement

Exciting news! Source Brewing is expanding to our third location in Manayunk, Philadelphia! 🍻
We’re transforming a historic 1800s bank into our latest home. Stay tuned for updates and sneak peeks by following us at @sourcemanayunk.

For More Information on Source Brewing

The following comes via Untappd. Source Brewing is a microbrewery from Colts Neck, NJ. They have 494 unique beers and over 147,000 ratings, with a global average rating of 4.02 (as of 6.4.24). Their Untappd description reads: “Our mission is to create the ideal environment for people to enjoy hand-crafted, farm-to-glass ales and lagers brewed on site. We have a deep respect for beer and see it as more than just a simple beverage or means to an end. Beer can have a personality, tell a story, wow the senses, and bring people together. That is our vision, and when we first saw the 125-year-old dairy barn on a beautiful farm in the agricultural town of Colts Neck, NJ we knew we had found the right place set off on our mission to curate the ideal beer drinking experience.”

Michaux Brewing Expanding to Gettysburg

The expansion news continues in Central PA (and Pennsylvania beer in general). Michaux Brewing just announced that they will be expanding into Gettysburg, adding a taproom there. It was just two years ago they opened their current location (July 3rd 2022). (Michaux Brewing Grand Opening.) Its great to see them expanding in less than two years, and into a wonderful beer city. Gettysburg is currently home to Fourscore Beer Co and Pilger Ruh Brewing. (As well as having had Tattered Flag and Appalachian Brewing Company there.) (Pilger Ruh Brewing Expanding into Gettysburg)

Announcement

💥GETTYSBURG… HERE WE COME!💥

We are excited to officially announce that Michaux Brewing Company is expanding! We will be opening a second location in downtown Gettysburg this summer! After months of planning and a lot of help from our friends and family, the space is looking great. Our official opening date is still TBD, but we will be sure to keep you updated!

We want to give a special shoutout to Kenny @blue_shift_industries who helped in the visualization of the future taproom. His rendering of the space is on point!

Stay tuned for updates on the Gettysburg location!

Expands Production and Patio Space in Cincinnati’s College Hill

Brink Brewing Co. Expands Production and Patio Space in Cincinnati’s College Hill

Brink Brewing Co. Expands Production and Patio Space in Cincinnati’s College Hill

Brink Brewing Co., an award-winning Cincinnati craft brewery, is nearing completion of a significant expansion at its College Hill location. The project includes a new production space, a dedicated canning line, a barrel-aging room, and a larger patio, with construction expected to wrap up this summer.

Located at 5905 Hamilton Ave., Brink Brewing is expanding into the adjacent building at 5909 Hamilton Ave., adding an additional 2,400 square feet to its current 3,200-square-foot space. This expansion will enable the brewery to significantly boost its production capacity and packaging capabilities.

Brink initially considered expanding outside College Hill, but after discussions with the College Hill Community Urban Redevelopment Corporation (CHCURC), they decided to keep the investment local. According to Andrew McCleese, founder and director of operations, “We explored opening a second location, but the costs were high. Instead, we opted to grow right here in College Hill.”

The brewery officially purchased the adjacent building in September 2023, and construction began shortly after. The $300,000 project includes a $180,000 investment in new equipment like a canning labeler, palletizer, walk-in cooler, and pallet stacker. The expansion is expected to allow Brink to produce 85% of its beer in-house, up from just 30% in previous years.

Production Boost and Future Plans

In 2023, Brink Brewing produced 1,200 barrels of beer, ranking as the 18th-largest brewery in the Cincinnati area. With the new canning line and additional space, the brewery plans to produce up to 900 barrels in-house, continuing its relationship with Impact Brewing for contract brewing of its flagship IPA and core brands.

“We’re leaving room to add more tanks in the future if needed,” said McCleese. “This expansion gives us flexibility to grow our production and canning operations as demand increases.”

Increased Distribution and Visibility

Thanks to a new partnership with Heidelberg Distributing, Brink Brewing has significantly expanded its brand presence. The brewery’s products can now be found in Great American Ball Park and at major events like Taste of Cincinnati, further boosting its visibility in the region.

Brink has also seen success in retail, securing placements in 72 Kroger stores by 2021, alongside multiple awards, including three consecutive Great American Beer Festival gold medals for its Moozie milk stout. The brewery has been recognized as the Best Very Small Brewery in the United States two years in a row.

Expanded Patio and Community Growth

Brink’s expansion isn’t just about production. Its patio space is doubling in size to 3,000 square feet, providing a more inviting space for guests. This upgrade is part of a collaboration with CHCURC and Cincinnati’s outdoor improvement program.

“We were one of the first businesses to invest in College Hill when there wasn’t much happening here,” said McCleese. “It’s been incredible to grow alongside the neighborhood.”

Brink Brewing Co. opened its doors in 2017, founded by Jack Duncan, Mark Landers, and Kelly Montgomery, who turned a homebrewing hobby into an award-winning brewery. McCleese, a long-time friend, joined early on, helping the brewery maintain its focus on small-batch, organic growth.
