    Golden Age Beer Co 337 E. 8th Avenue, Homestead, PA, United States

    John Gresh Gris Gris at Golden Age Beer Company | June 19 7:00 PM  10:00 PM Golden Age Beer Company 337 East 8th Avenue Homestead, PA, 15120 If you like Dr. John, you’re going to love John Gresh Gris Gris. John Gresh leads his talented band from the piano, covering songs that have become New Orleans staples, ranging from Professor Longhair to Dr. John to the Meters. Gresh’s voice has that same gravelly perfection and his fingers have the same key-tinkley mastery that made Dr. John a national treasure that far exceeded the boundaries of New Orleans. Gresh is joined with a band that has the range not just to deliver swinging renditions of New Orleans classics, but also precise covers of The Band, Van Morrison, and other 70s southern soul and Americana favorites with a drummer who can sing Levon Helms with the same aplomb that Gresh can sing Dr. John. As always, music at Golden Age is FREE TO THE PEOPLE. NEVER A COVER CHARGE! Prost! We love lager. We started Golden Age Beer Co. because we are passionate about making clean and crisp lagers that are eminently drinkable. From crisp Northern German and fragrant Italian-style pilsners to luxurious dunkels and […]

    Golden Age Beer Co 337 E. 8th Avenue, Homestead, PA, United States

    Drew's Clues Trivia at Golden Age Beer Co. | Every Wednesday 7:00 PM  9:00 PM Golden Age Beer Company 337 East 8th Avenue Homestead, PA, 15120 United States (map) Every Wednesday, Pittsburgh’s best trivia master hosts a brain-busting trivia at Golden Age. Drink beers. Answer questions. Win prizes! Teams of up to six welcome. We love lager. We started Golden Age Beer Co. because we are passionate about making clean and crisp lagers that are eminently drinkable. From crisp Northern German and fragrant Italian-style pilsners to luxurious dunkels and Franconian rauchbiers to the easy-drinking, “lawnmower” American lager, we believe that, with their clean, subtle and eminently-drinkable finesse, lagers are the beers that bring people together, that cross divides, and that are both the past and the future of beer.  And so we brought a brewery that makes lager its primary focus to Pittsburgh and, more particularly, to Homestead.  Indeed, we believe that to do anything else would be an injustice to this community’s hard-working, steely heritage and resolve.  When this community rose up in 1892 to rebuff a barge full of armed Pinkertons, it was fueled by Homestead-brewed lager, while the very brewers who crafted that lager stood in solidarity with their steel-worker brethren […]
