“This might just be the smallest Wine and Spirits in Allegheny county. Just the same, they have a decent variety and you'll find most of what you're looking for. Just don't go looking for things that are exclusive to the premium collection stores and your expectation will be met. Bota box, yes. Jameson whiskey, yes. Suntory Toki even, yes. Saki, no for the most part. German resiling, mostly no. I'm sure you get the idea. Look for the standards, they'll have most. Look for something special, they won't have it.”
“Love coming here to peruse the shelves and get new things to try! I’m a creature of habit so being able to go and taste helps me try new things and they are always super helpful. They have a wide selection, I’m always pleased to see they have single cans just in case you don’t want to commit to a six or twelve pack of something you may not like. Also the staff is just super nice, good people, and always pleasant to talk to while you browse. This is a must visit place for non-alcoholic beverages if you’re in Pittsburgh, visitor or resident.”
“The selection of beers here is top notch. I'm a sucker for some 4 packs of local pounders, and they have some great ones. Dancing Gnome, Hitchhiker, Cinderlands, East End, they're all here. They also have domestics and lots of typical larger craft breweries 12 packs. As expected, those smaller 4, 6, and 12 packs can be a little pricey, but that's how it goes everywhere. To top it all off, the employees are super nice. Highly recommended if you value good beverages.”
“Great selection, and the fact that you can take your child with you and both walk out happy (myself with beer, them with pokemon cards) is outstanding. A+ in all aspects.”

“Beer88 is my go-to place before a party, the selection is exceptional and the staff is knowledgeable and extremely helpful. As a recent non-alcoholic drinker, and I was unsure if Beer88 would have anything for me. I was pleasantly surprised by the amazing selection of so many types of non-alcoholic beer, and some non-alcoholic wine. Beer88 is my go-to for all parties from now on. Highly recommend coming to see what new selection is in store”

5726 Ellsworth Ave, Pittsburgh“Great selection of beers and wines for any taste ✨ They also have wine/beer tasting events! And they have some seating in case if you would like to have a small gathering”
“Been coming here since I was a kid now only buying water but nonetheless is still a great place. It’s hard to find 5 gallon top or bottom style water cooler refills and they have it reasonably priced actual springwater and if you need some of that courage in the bottle personality enhancing nectar they got plenty of that too.. always best pricing around. And the famous one for the road slushy bar machines,someday I’ll get one”
“So good! I appreciate that they have Arsenal all over the city, but nothing like trying all the variety at the cider house itself. I love the drier stuff and the broken hearts was a winner for me. My partner got a ginger one and that was also delicious. Friendly staff and nice cozy place. Outside was spacious and we were lucky enough to snag a spot by the fire pit. A Pittsburgh must.”
“Already reviewed when the place first opened but I love coming here. It's super convenient and the staff members are super nice and always helpful. Always have a positive experience when I come here”

3873 Brighton Rd, Pittsburgh“Friendly folks and a great selection of beer. The gentleman spent the time to tell me about new beers they have available and make suggestions. Everything is very clean and organized, and prices were great. I'd go out of my way to shop here just for the good conversation, helpful employees, and friendly vibes.”

1304 Federal St, Pittsburgh“They had dollar tallboys of cider. Fire. Smells like cigarettes but in a warm and comforting way. Makes you wanna leave the store quickly. Keeps you on task. Great space. High ceilings.”
“Really nice distributor that took me awhile living in the area to visit. Large, well lit and staffed and intelligently organized, it's always a pleasant experience. And the large selection of craft beer, including many local breweries, is an added benefit.”
“Love this place! They have the best selections, great prices and awesome customer service. You can also get an alcoholic slushie to go and they do not disappoint!”
“Was a decent place to get beer until a manager told me to leave after I questioned his decision to sell beer that went from cold to warm after their fridges went out. He called me elitist for saying I write beer reviews. Not sure how you can be elitist for that, but okay. I did a bit of research on this subject after the manager responded (which was nice of him) and I stand partially corrected. It turns out that beer can go from cold to warm and not get 'skunked,' but in my experience--and many others'--there's a taste difference after going from cold to warm that's notable. It wasn't exactly cold in the shop; it was warm. But I'll err on the side of saying I have learned something from this exchange and I'll adjust my rating accordingly.”
“This place has undergone a complete overhaul this past year and it is now my favorite. The new owner is so knowledgable about beer and is so friendly and customer focused. It's a good place and the best little beer stop you'll find.”

429 W Main St, Carnegie“Not just a great place for beer (they have a real nice selection), but a great place for soda pop too. My go to place when I need a case of locally-made Red Ribbon Pop (I special ordered the Bitter Lemon, but some flavors are in stock), or Mexican Coke (made with real sugar and no HFCS), in glass bottles. Friendly staff ... Cheers!!”

4986 Library Rd, Bethel Park“These guys are the best in the area. They have amazing customer service, staff is always friendly, and they offer to hold something for you if they have it in stock and one left. I also love their commitment to having local breweries in their offerings. I try to give them all my business because they are so great to deal with. Can’t recommend them enough!”

From craft brews that awaken the palate to familiar domestic favorites that bring a sense of comfort, the variety is astonishing. And while the domestic and craft options alone could satiate even the pickiest of palates, I feel the potential for more international offerings. Imagine the excitement of finding beloved brews from renowned breweries like Unibroue and Trappist lining the shelves! A La Trappe Quad, oh my, that would be the epitome of excellence.But it's not just the beers that make East Street Beer a standout establishment. The ownership and staff play an integral role in curating an inviting and welcoming atmosphere. Their genuine passion for beer is infectious, and their knowledge and recommendations have guided me through numerous delightful discoveries. The warm smiles and willingness to engage in spirited conversations make each visit a true pleasure.East Street Beer is more than just a place to grab a 6-pack – it's a haven for beer enthusiasts, a living piece of history, and a place where camaraderie and connection thrive.

“The Pennsylvanian government operates hundreds of these stores throughout the state. At this particular location, an employee promptly greeted me when I entered the store. I easily found my two favorite wines on the shelves. They were priced reasonably. The employee accurately scanned my wines and processed my payment, and he wished me a good day.”
“Great local options to choose from including, Hitchhiker and Grist house, and lots of other locals. Well & of course all the classics you expect to see at a beer distributor. We are regulars for sure”

90 Allegheny River Blvd, Verona“Knowing that Pennsylvania runs the liquor stores this one has a small yet nice selection. It's well thought out by whoever makes the selection. And Steph was an absolute help with her knowledge I will definitely stop by again because of her.”
“As a long time Bloomfield resident I've known this locations history starting 40 years ago as a gas/service station. A few years ago the owner was having the many years of his hard work catch up. He sold the location to what is now was once a unicorn, a beer distributor with an outstanding selection sure to suit anyone's taste. And here's the real anomaly, plenty of parking!”

5956 Centre Ave #201, Pittsburgh“So this is my regular wine and spirit store that I go to, it's big and spacious and always clean. The staff is always friendly and polite which creates a great shopping experience.”
“Lovely location with an awesome staff. Had a family member get sick over the holidays and Melanie was wonderful. She was able to locate my order over the phone and return two of the unused bottles in store. She never hesitated to search for my order and print my receipt, when I was the one who declined the receipt at the time of purchase. Never have we returned liquor, but with the stomach bug, we couldn’t risk our friends/family getting sick. We are not big drinkers outside of holidays, so to get the $70 back was very nice. 10/10 would recommend. Clean facility, great selection, and thoughtful team members.”
“Helpful for gift selections ,helpful polite employees, convenient location,nextdoor to post office ,and other convenient stores on same block,handicap parking spaces available if needed”
“Super professional, always courteous, and the one woman ,Kris she is absolutely beautiful my son James has the biggest crush on her we work for the person who owns the building so we dee what goes on behind the scenes and its a great place”
“A shout out to the hardest working and most philanthropic beer distributor in Western Pennsylvania. They have donated thousands of cans of beer to a nonprofit I volunteer for, this is a great organization. They also carry amazing brews, just every craft brewery that you know and love. They have been in Millvale since 1933, which means they have survived multiple floods and one fire, and still they are loyal to Millvale, which means a lot to that community.”
