Spent three hours yesterday with Kelsey Grammer talking and sampling his new Faith American Ale and IPA.
I’m not usually an IPA drinker but it was not bad. Not a dank, hazy beer though I know some prefer that.

Really cool place. If you go back up that way, DEFINITELY check out Therapy Brewing. If you like relaxing while drinking beer, there is no better place. Beer is fine, but its the best place to drink a beer in PAWent to New Trail Brewing Friday after running my brothers camper up to his site. Had their Broken Heels NE IPA. Delicious

Huh...TIL that Kelsey Grammer owns a brewery. That's pretty cool. I wouldn't have thought he'd jump into that market after his Viper accident and Betty Ford stint, although it was 25 years ago.Spent three hours yesterday with Kelsey Grammer talking and sampling his new Faith American Ale and IPA.

Is this available in PA? I looked real quick but didn't see any info.

He’s just starting to get out there. I know he’s working through Black River distribution in NJ.
He was on a tour to visit outlets (bars and liquor stores) and I happen to know the right person and got to literally sit next to him while he was talking to the the owner and general manager. We walked the Boardwalk before hand and got a private tour of the Steel Pier in Atlantic City. Didn’t decline any photo requests. Talked about the beer, the Frazier reboot, and he loves history.
The backstory on his Calico Man IPA has a great background that I hadn’t heard before.

I was invited to join his tour at a particular bar in AC. Literally sat on his left side while we ate and chatted about the beer and the history behind it.
As noted above, we met before the tour and walked the Boardwalk and he was reminiscing about visiting the Jersey shore when he was a kid. Steel Pier was closed but they saw him and one of the owners came out and walked us around.

Anyone got any recommendations for west-coast style IPAs available around Pittsburgh? Seems like everybody east has massive boners for hazy/new-england style now, and I'm completely over it. Seems like Stone is the only widely distributed game in town for a reliable option for that style.

I know 60 minute from dogfish head calls itself an east coast IPA, but it's more west coast than NEIPA.
For things that are actually classified as west coast IPAs... Fatheads headhunter is a great option. Ballast Point Sculpin is nice as well. Union Jack IPA from Firestone Walker is likely available. Maybe Green Flash palate wrecker?

I believe Firestone Walker is available in the area now, so Union Jack is an option.

I get GL every year as it's always good and it's consistent year to year. I also always get Sierra Nevada as it too is always good, but changes year to year. This year's is quite good, as expected.
