Pittsburgh Brewing and The Alchemist have teamed up to release two limited-time craft beers called Over and Under. Over is a hop forward pilsner with a distinct Alchemist twist. This brew showcases sweet malt and herbal/floral hop flavors with an aroma of candied fruit and fresh herbs. Under is an intense malty dark larger with flavors of molasses and coffee with aromatic notes of candied fruit and green herbs.

Over will be the first product to hit the shelves mid to late August while Under will follow the release of Over sometime in late October with another batch of Over so they can be enjoyed together. This limited-time brew is only available in the Pittsburgh market and will be sold in retail outlets where Iron City Beer is sold.

Proceeds from these brews will be donated to the Women’s Center & Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh, a non-profit organization Brandon and John both found meaningful to raise funds for.

Pittsburgh Brewing – Director of Brewing and Quality Assurance, Brandon Mayes has been with the brewery for 3 years, previously working for Long Trail Brewing in Vermont. His time in Vermont allowed him to meet, and make connections with other breweries in the area, which led him to meet the owner of The Alchemist, John Kimmich, a born-and-raised Pittsburgher.

“As a Pennsylvania native with a deep-rooted love for the Pittsburgh area, I was more than excited to join Pittsburgh Brewing after 16 years of brewing in Vermont.  Those connections made in Vermont generated the idea of collaborating with a Vermont brewery with direct ties to Pittsburgh to benefit the Women’s Center & Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh as they mark 50 years of fostering a community of safety, healing, and empowerment for anyone affected by domestic violence.”

Brandon Mayes – Pittsburgh Brewing Co.

“I was born and raised in Pittsburgh, and the beers of Pittsburgh Brewing Company hold a special place in my heart. When they asked me to collaborate on a beer to raise funds for the Women’s Center & Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh, I jumped at the chance. I’ve only done a handful of collaboration beers in the past 20 years, and this is the first in my hometown. I am thrilled to be a part of this project, especially with the makers of Iron City, a beer inherently linked to the City of Champions.”

John Kimmich – The Alchemist

“We are thrilled and honored to announce our exciting partnership with Pittsburgh Brewing Company and The Alchemist for a special beer release! This collaboration comes at a significant time as we celebrate our 50th anniversary, marking five decades of dedication to supporting and empowering those affected by domestic violence.

Our mission is clear: “We will strengthen our ability to meet the individual and evolving needs of those affected by domestic violence by investing in the growth of our people, deepening community engagement, and amplifying the voices of all survivors.” This partnership is a testament to our commitment to deepening community engagement and amplifying the voices of survivors.

Houston, TX – In June Texas’ oldest craft brewery Saint Arnold Brewing released one of our favorite summer seasonals. And it’s out there now, but as we enter August, it won’t be forever, so you know what to do.

Brewed with fine German malt, and a copious quantity of “noble” hops imported from the Czech Republic, and ironically not even a Pilsner in the truest sense, Saint Arnold Summer Pils is a crisp and refreshing 4.9% ABV Munich-style Helles with a delicate, sweet malt taste complemented by an abundant hop aroma and flavor. It’s also the most award-winning beer they brew at Saint Arnold.
