...but there's beer in Homewood, and I don't mean just what is being served in bars. I mean beer being brewed in Homewood, at East End Brewing.
EEB has been around for a while now; the news here is that the brewery is releasing a new label tomorrow, named after its home neighborhood: Homewood Reserve.
I know NOTHING about beer, but EEB proprietor Scott Smith describes Homewood Reserve, a limited offering, as "an American Stout brewed with blackstrap molasses and brown sugar," and aged in a bourbon barrel so that "it picks up some of the bourbon notes."
If you know what all of that means and you like the sound of it, swing on by 6923 Susquehanna St. tomorrow during the brewery's "Growler Hours," between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. and give it a try. Otherwise, you can give a call to 412-537-2337.
