Hitchhiker Brewing

Hitchhiker consistently makes amazing craft beers! If you're at all into beer, I promise you will love this brewery. Especially if you like sours - they have some of the best I've ever had. In my opinion, their mimosa sour is one of the Pittsburgh brewing scene's most iconic beers!It's a cool spot too - it's smaller but I like the intimate vibe. Just be aware it does get very crowded during the weekends so you may need to wait a little for a seat (though standing around with a great beer in hand isn't the worst problem to have in the world)I especially like visiting during the summer when they have somebody outside grilling up food!

Hitchhiker is my go-to spot for a happy hour drink. Their outdoor patio is lovely and, though small, has plenty of seating. There are often food vendors visiting, and the bar does offer some small snacks now. The indoor space is fairly tiny and often crowded, especially with the bar line. But, staff does their best to keep things moving. I'd recommend this spot for anyone looking for a cute, pet-friendly, family-friendly patio.

Tiny little brewery, this is much smaller than their other location, but still a great spot!We came for trivia night last night (Every Wednesday at 7pm is Trivia) with Buzzworthy Pub TriviaLuckily, we were able to get a seat but I did see people walk in, look around for a spot, and then leave. So seating is limited. Great beers though, they do have bar snacks, and sell merch such as koozies. The employees are very friendly and knowledgeable about beer

Arrived with 30 minutes before closure on a Sunday. Service was nothing close to friendly, I had a craving and bought two, four packs to-go. Happy to lounge all day in the sun sometimes but there were 6 people total at 7pm and pass often when there's a food truck. May 19, 2024. Learned you won't get service with a smile when it's 7:30 pm.

Had the "You'll shoot your eye out" was the first beer I had, it was great. Second one was the blonde ale Conversion, yummy too. The beers are heavy on the stomach. The only thing I would knock a star off for is, having only 1 bathroom does not help with a brewery/bar full of people who have been drinking.

Highly recommend! I am not drinking right now so I may not be the best person to review the bar; however, this place has a cozy vibe, yummy appetizers, and a tasty cream soda. I believe the hard cider was well enjoyed by many in my party. Give it a try ;)

We find ourselves at Hitchhiker pretty frequently. I love that they change the beer menu up, so there's usually something new and different to try. I'm a big fan of sour beers and my fiancé loves IPAs, and we each can always find something we like. During happy hour, draft beers are $1 off, and it's usually not very busy a.k.a. you'll have no problem getting a seat. However, on weekends, the place is usually pretty crowded, so many times you have to stand. Not a huge deal but wouldn't definitely love if they had a larger place with more seating. In addition to the small interior, there are also picnic tables outside that are dog friendly and more tables on the back deck, so plenty of seating options when it's nice out and not so many once it gets cold again. The bartenders are very knowledgeable and friendly and seem to genuinely enjoy working there. My favorite part of Hitchhiker (other than the delicious beer, of course) is their board games and card games! They have plenty to choose from, and it gives you something fun to do when drinking beers with your friends.

Hitchhiker I love you!! SLAYING beers. Obsessed with the pb&j sour! Love the outdoor seating. And the food trucks on the weekend. You can also bring your own food and sit outside. A whole vibe! Well priced, too. Careful, though, 3 beers and you're gonna need a ride home!!

First time in and we really enjoyed the beer! The inside is a smaller room with a big bar. It's cozy with good character. Flights are 3 8oz pours. To start I got a red IPA, fruited sour, and milkshake IPA. All 3 were great. Really nice fruit flavors in the fruited sour and milkshake IPA. After that I ordered a pour of another fruited sour, Cran-Bottle Service, which was excellent. Very tasty. Food-wise there are a few snack options available. We'll be back!

I had avoided Hitchhiker for a long time because of some not so great experiences however more recently I decided to stop back and try again on Tuesday then again on a Wednesday. The ladies working were great, had a nice experience, unlike some past experiences with rude staff.
