OAKDALE, PA (June 29, 2026) — Grist House Craft Brewery is inviting the Pittsburgh community to celebrate Independence Day this Saturday, July 4, with the release of a special commemorative beer, live music, limited-edition merchandise, and one of the most unique Fourth of July experiences in the region.
The highlight of the day is Outrun Freedom, the latest release in Grist House’s popular Outrun Series of crisp, hop-forward pilsners. Brewed to honor America’s 250th anniversary, this refreshing 4.6% ABV pilsner is dry-hopped with classic American hops Citra and Amarillo, delivering bright citrus, orange zest, and subtle tropical notes over a clean, snappy finish. Perfect for summer cookouts and gatherings with friends, Outrun Freedom celebrates a timeless American tradition: sharing a cold beer with good company.
Fourth of July Celebration at Grist House Command
On Saturday, July 4, Grist House Command will be open from 11 AM to 11 PM. Guests can enjoy solo sets from local musicians, shop exclusive anniversary merchandise, and dine from a special holiday menu at the Command Kitchen. The celebration is free entry and family-friendly.
Perched on one of the highest points in Allegheny County, Grist House Command offers panoramic views across the Pittsburgh area. While there are no on-site fireworks, visitors can watch multiple regional fireworks displays from the expansive outdoor decks — creating a memorable, one-of-a-kind Independence Day experience.
“Our goal has always been to bring people together over great beer,” said Brian Eaton, co-owner of Grist House Craft Brewery. “Outrun Freedom celebrates a milestone in American history while giving people another reason to gather with friends and family. We can’t wait to welcome everyone for an unforgettable Fourth of July.”
