Abjuration Brewing

Creatively used space, great to hang with friends! The inside is dimly light and has several high top tables, bar seating, and a few 4-person low tops. There's a small kitchen operating inside with a somewhat limited menu, a larger outdoor space with picnic tables, and a huge movie screen inside to watch movies or sports. They alternated between basketball and movies when I was there. The staff were friendly and quick to suggest a few beers and provide samples. The parking outside is along the street, but there's plenty. They have one unisex bathroom that was somewhat clean.

Man... I know I review and check in to Abjuration Brewing a LOT. I can't help it though because I haven't reviewed it in a while and I continue to go often. What can I say?! Abjuration is awesome! Honestly we are probably there at least once every few weeks. They generally do a new release or two each week so there is always something new to try. They announce each release on Facebook. They offer online ordering and then allow two weeks to pickup. They make the whole process easy. Oh and even better you can order single cans so if you are unsure if you will like something or just want some variety you are set.The staff here is phenomenal. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. They are knowledgeable and happy to help you find a beer you will truly enjoy. I have witnessed them go above and beyond to make sure a customer was happy with her experience. They recognize the regulars and always offer a greeting. It is one of the things that makes this place special.They have a beer garden set up now with picnic tables and a fire pit. It's nice because it offers up extra space.I have heard people ask what Abjuration is known for. It seems to be for their "weird" beers. Honestly they have some of the widest variety of beers anywhere around and yes that includes some weird ones. They are the brewery responsible for getting us hooked on sours. They make sours with herbs that drink more like a cocktail. They have sours made with ice cream or candy (or multiple candies in one) or straight fruited sours. They truly run the gamut. They always have some basic easy drinkers on like a lager, a brown, a Kolsch, etc. I have heard their IPAs are good (though I'm not an IPA drinker). They don't do stouts often but have put out some good ones. They also have done a few different rice wines that are unique and delicious.Abjuration just keep doing what you are doing and killing it. We have been there since Day 1 and will continue to show up.

This brewery in the Rocks marked the 102nd brewery that I've visited. Marking that I've officially visited every microbrewery in the Pittsburgh region and let me tell you there is a lot. More are on the way, and I'll need to visit the new ones.Sadly I didn't know until this year that this place existed. How did I not know. One thing is that I love Hazy IPA's or Pale Ale's, they are my go to drink. What I do not like is a sour. However I tried a couple of their sours and damn are they the best that I've ever tasted.This place is unique it's in part of an old theater. They still have comedy nights here on the weekends it appears. The place looks a little scary, but it's perfectly fine area from what I've gathered.I can't wait to come back here again. Great place.

Movie theater. Small beer ordering area. Full bar on the side. Outside area where dogs allowed. Tiny kitchen operates at times from the side of the bar. When closed, owner allows popusas, etc from newly opened Hispanic restaurant next door. They have comedians and jazz music on certain nights. They also show a movie occasionally (1 screen). Interesting concept. We enjoyed our time there.

I never knew this place existed til I was asked to meet someone there. What a great use of space. This is in the heart of McKees Rocks in an old theater space. It looked like the theater is still used for entertaining. They offer all their beers in beaker glasses which was cute. They have a very helpful board rating the beers as far as if they are sour or not, alcohol content and pricing. There is a very nice outdoor space with fire pits and picnic tables as well and the indoor space has a garage door in front that easily can open for nice days to enjoy the weather.

This place brews some great fruited sours and crazy combinations. Pours range from 5, 8, or 16 oz so you don't have to commit too hard to the fun flavors so it was easy to try several to find your favorite. Nice outdoor space and what looked like a great movie setup as well! Highly recommended for adventurous beer seekers!

Pink cotton candy sour... a little sweet for me but truly what you expect from a candy sour. The lemon blueberry sour was amazing . Ambiance of this place is great . Hockey on the 15 foot screen is a must. Small kitchen but everything was made to order and smelled great

So you walk into the Parkway theater & Film lounge & bar & there is fun brewery inside. They had at least 15 beers on tap. I was intrigued to try one of their sours made with fish shaped candy!! Yum. Our group of 3 tried several tastings. You can do 2 4oz pours as a flight & they are served in a mini beaker!! Check them out. We will be back in the warmer weather.

Lagers were great! Awesome experimental sours too. The food from safari eats was great too! The parkway special was a great sandwich (shrimp hoagie).!

After living in Asheville for several years you realize how spoiled you are with good beer after moving 8 hours away. Stumbled upon this brewery by finding their 3 year anniversary party event online. I'm really glad we decided to stop by and see what it was all about. I learned quickly Pittsburgh is big on German style beers with less room for creative styles. I know they're out there.. I'm still exploring!! But Abjuration has some of the most fun combinations to sip on and explore. There really wasn't one I didn't like. My favorite was the chocolate chili pepper stout.. I don't remember the exact name but it was worth ordering 2 of! Can't wait to go back and continue trying all the fun beers they come out with! We also look forward to checking out comedy night and some other events that are hosted there and/or next door at the theater. Bonus points for being on our side of town!
