PBL 1st Anniversary Celebration!
Thursday, June 28 at 7pm
June 2012 marks the one-year anniversary of the Pittsburgh Beer Ladies! As some of you may know, we had our 1st event at Penn Brewery on June 3rd, 2011. We thought it fitting to celebrate our success this past year at the place where it all started. This event will include a blind beer tasting and small hors d'oeuvres. You will be able to order dinner if you like. There will be a fee associated with this event. Once I have all the details worked out with the brewery, I'll post it.

Brew Your Own at Copper Kettle Brewing
Our May event will be the opportunity to brew your own beer at Copper Kettle Brewing in Greenfield! Here is your chance to brew your own beer and have someone else clean up after you! The brewing itself takes several hours, then it will ferment and the group will have to come back to bottle their beer. To keep down costs, we can have up to 5 ladies on one kettle. Each kettle makes 60 22oz bottles which is more than enough split 5 ways. We hope to use some of this beer for our summer picnic/beer exchange event.
The cost per person depends on your groups' choice of beer. There are three levels of beer pricing; classic ($35 per case), premium ($37 per case), select ($39 per case). The brew yields 5 cases of 12 22oz bottles. These bottles can be reused for future brewings to discount your total. Generic labels are provided for free. However, if your group chooses to do so, you may create custom labels for an additional $25 per case.
To register for this event, click here. Visit the Events tab at the top, scroll to the month of May, then choose the date and brew of your choice. Currently, there is an event for brewing a wheat and an IPA. More choices will be added shortly.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this event and happy brewing!

Spring 2012 Events
Greetings, craft beer ladies! We have a lot of exciting events in the works for the upcoming months. Including, but not limited to, the following:
Pittsburgh Craft Beer Week
The Pittsburgh Beer Ladies will be taking part in Pittsburgh's 1st annual craft beer week. This event was created in conjunction with Pittsburgh Brewniversity and is currently scheduled for Monday, April 23 from 7:00PM-8:30PM. This event, open to both women and men, will begin with an overview of the role of women in the local and national craft beer industry. The main portion of this event will be spent on education using the "beer wheel." Attendees will sample various beers and mark the flavors they think they taste on the beer wheel. The person leading the event will discuss the tasting notes for each beer and entertain questions so everyone understands how to describe what it is they are tasting.
Copper Kettle Brewing Company
Have you ever wanted to brew your own beer but didn't know where to start? Let the PBL and Copper Kettle Brewing Company help you out. Copper Kettle, right next to Hough's Tap Room and Brew Pub, has the all equipment and the recipes. In May, those wanting to take part will be divided into groups of 5 (only 5 people can be on a kettle) and assigned a beer. When we're all done, we can swap bottles...which leads us to our June event.
PBL Beer Swap
In June, PBL will be renting a park and having our 1st annual beer swap! This event will be also open to spouses and significant others of the male persuasion. Those attending will bring a case of one of their favorite brews to share with the group. We will also bring samples of our Copper Kettle beer so those who couldn't make it to the previous event may sample our creations.
As you can see, we have quite a bit planned so please stay tuned for details! More information on all the these events, as well as any others added, will be posted soon. If you have any questions or would like us to visit a particular venue or feature a specific brewery, please feel free to post here or send me an email.
Cheers!
