Featured Tour #1- Straub

Straub Brewery, located in tiny St. Marys in Pennsylvania's beautiful, rural Allegheny National Forest, has managed to maintain a hometown, family feel in an era when gigantic national breweries dominate the industry.

The Straub family has been brewing beer in Pennsylvania since 1872, and the fourth generation of Straub now runs the brewery. The family touch is evident throughout the tour, which takes you through the charming brewery.

The highlight of a visit to Straub Brewery is undoubtedly the Eternal Tap - which, true to its name, offers a free brew or two to any visitors who stop by. The only catch is that you'll be asked to wash your own glass.
