RBancroft Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 In a few weeks I'll find myself spending the day in Pittsburgh. On most of my driving trips, I usually try to stop by a few liquor stores to see if there is anything that generates some interest. I don't foresee making any stops in Ohio, but I wanted to see if anyone had suggestions for a few places to stop while in the Pittsburgh and/or surrounding area. I'll be coming in from the north via 76, 79 and 279.Thanks - Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callmeox Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 PA is a control state, so there is little variety between state stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulO Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 There also seem to be very few stores. If you want to visit one, I suggest mapping it out ahead of time. I stayed in Pittsburg for a few days. I could not find a single store close to the hotel. I later found out many bars do a brisk carry out business selling cold beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDM Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 There is a craft distillery in what is known as the "strip district"(no it's not what you think, it's a market district) called Wigle whiskey. Check out the website for a tour and tasting. I've never been but it's a suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qman22 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I recommend you visit a liquor store here, so you can see the backward way we are forced to live. This is the state's website www.finewineandgoodspirits.comYou can see what the state carries and what stores carry it, so if you are looking for something in particular you know exactly where to go get it. There is some variety between stores, but not much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clueby Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I'll be in Pitt the next couple of days. My hotel actually has a Wigle tasting shop inside it. I guess they can sell bottles, too? Anyone ever try the Wigle whiskey(s)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wigle bourbon is pretty good, just aged very young. Also, their gin is phenomenal as well. I haven't tried their rye yet, but I'm not a rye fan. They do indeed sell bottles, I think their bourbon is $50+ since it is considered a "micro" distillery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PA is a control state so if you are looking to hit the stores up you can see where things are in stock at http://www.finewineandgoodspirits.com, I was in PA last weekend and grabbed Ezra Brook Barrel Strength.

That's one I'm hoping to get. Won't have a lot of time. Has 4R 130 come and gone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
