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.

A cheap $16 draft at PNC Park, Pittsburgh. At least the ballpark is beautiful. Very soft tangerine with white grass and soft malt backbone. Definitely crushable.

Golden yellow with small head. Lemon, grainy barley malt, and grass aroma. Mildly sweet lemon, barley malt, and moderately bitter grass flavor. Good body.

Can pour, dark pink. Perfumey berry aroma. Strong blueberry and boysenberry notes, hard to make out but I suspect it leans towards a synthetic flavoring but the color looks legit.

Can from Total Wine. Pours a mostly clear orange gold with a full 2-3 fingers of off-white head that lingers. Big dank aromas of pine, grapefruit, pineapple and tropical fruit. More of the same on the palate. Full bodied version of Head Hunter. Lingering tropical fruit and dank on the finish. Killer 2xWCIPA.

Draft pour, lightly cloudy gold. Lemon and grapefruit aroma. The yeast is giving this a meaty note to the hops. Notes of lemon oil and guava.
