Per the Pittsburgh Brewing Co. website, the Pittsburgh Brewing Co. was formed as a merger of 21 different local breweries on February 9th, 1899. 

 

Of these 21, we are aware of 4 that at some point released a beer tray.  Click the box below to take a look: 






We have created a separate page for each in an attempt to document them in an organized manner while preserving their unique lineage. 


Please contact us if you have more information to help further detail the different branches of the Pittsburgh Brewing Co.
