Pennsylvania is one of the biggest brewery states in the country, and its beer map covers hundreds of cities and towns. Philadelphia and Pittsburgh lead, yet together with Lancaster they hold only about a fifth of the places listed. Beer stores make up nearly two fifths of the list, and where size is known, microbreweries and brewpubs are close to even.
Penn Brewery in Pittsburgh's Deutschtown calls itself the city's oldest brewery and pours German-style lagers beside a cobblestone biergarten. In Philadelphia, Evil Genius Beer Company gives its beers pop culture names like Stacy's Mom and Purple Monkey Dishwasher.
Manayunk Brewing Company sits on the river, and its website says it has one of the largest outdoor decks in Philadelphia. Yards Brewing Company started in a garage-sized space in Manayunk and now pours at its taproom in Northern Liberties.

Planning a brewery trip in Pennsylvania
Philadelphia and Pittsburgh make the easiest bases, since more breweries cluster there than anywhere else. In Pittsburgh, Southern Tier Brewery Pittsburgh on North Shore Drive has several more breweries within about half a mile.
Lancaster, Erie and Harrisburg each have a group of their own. Beyond the cities the list spreads across hundreds of towns, so plan each stop before you set out.
Every brewery page on brewery.fyi has hours, a map and what to know before you go. Check it on the day, since taproom hours can change.
