Description
Borne out of the mind of Media’s own Loïc Barnieu and fermented to perfection by accomplished brewer Brian McConnell, Sterling Pig Brewery brings local flavor and elevated pub favorites to the Baltimore Pike.

Brewed in small batches and tapped directly on-site, Sterling Pig’s eight rotating beers achieve the perfect balance of flavor and drinkability—from IPAs to Porters, from Stouts to Pilsners. It’s all about balance. From the beer to the food to the atmosphere: there’s something for everyone. Meet up with a friend at the bar. Bring your family to dinner in the main dining room overlooking the kitchen and the wood oven pizza. Throw a party upstairs overlooking the brewery, or simply take a growler to go.
