Hitchhiker Brewing Company, located in Pittsburgh, PA, is devoted to refining the time-honored styles and discovering new ones. They are focused on the evolution of their craft, exploring the unknown, and the excitement of introducing people to their beer.

Their original pub (and former brewery) is located in the heart of the Mt. Lebanon neighborhood of Pittsburgh. This location offers both beer and food. It’s an inviting space to hang out for a few beers, or take growlers and cans to go.

The new brewery and taproom located in the historic Sharpsburg neighborhood of Pittsburgh, in a building once home to Fort Pitt Brewing Co. This is a unique spot to enjoy beers, as well as pub fare. Sip a beer among the fermenters, take a tour and get a closer look at the gleaming 15-barrel brewhouse, or gather with friends along the 25-foot long steel-topped bar.

Myrcene is an 8.4% ABV double IPA brewed with oats. The beer is hopped with Vic Secret and Citra hops, boasting notes of pineapple, cantaloupe, pine sap, mango, and peach.
