Description
Fat Head's was founded in 1992 as a premiere craft beer tap house and restaurant in Pittsburgh, PA. In 2009 we expanded to Ohio and teamed up with our award-winning Head Brewmaster Matt Cole. With the explosion in popularity came the necessity to open a full-scale production brewery in 2012. Fat Head's Brewery produces original ales and lagers for distribution throughout Ohio and Western Pennsylvania.

Our Tap House offers Samples, Flights, and Fresh-brewed Pints! Sit right in the heart of our facility and enjoy the freshest beer from our tanks to your pint glass. We have a 16 tap draft system, bar seating, picnic tables, and some seriously tasty grub to go with it.

Can shared at Farewell to Ferndale share. Thanks Brad and Janna! Pours a clear gold with a finger of white foam that lingers. Blueberry, honey and wheat on the nose. Lots of blueberry on the palate with a touch of honey that lingers. Refreshing and enjoyable.

Sampled on draft at the Pittsburgh location this beer poured a dark brown color with a small beige head that left a bit of lacing. The aroma was candied fruits, sugar, caramel and tangy malts. The flavor was a bit tart with sugar, candied cherries and pears, caramel, nut, yeast and licorice notes. The finish was long and sugary with lingering ripe fruits. Thick and full bodied. There was an odd presence that reminded me of the Unibroue house yeast character. Quite nice.

Pour is plain old clear pale yellow. Lots of bubbling carbonation continually visible within. Nose has just a hint of lime. Taste also has just a hint of lime but the lime comes thru a little strong on the aftertaste. Not as much carbonation on the finish as the visual co2 would indicate. Nothing special here, just a fairly clean well behaved brew. Some rude lime peel bitterness surfaces toward the end. Not bad overall.

Pine, grapefruit peel, orange, and biscuit malt aroma. Hazy golden yellow with moderate white head. Moderately sweet citrus, biscuit malt, and moderately bitter grapefruit peel and pine flavor. Good body.
