    BEER is No. 1 seller. Tim the only REAL Primanti’s is in the strip. ALL others are fake news. I mean there is that much of a difference. Ate there twice Friday

    Don I just learned that term yesterday. A true Red eye is an IRON CITY. And tomato juice. But that’s what I heard. When I was a kid all we could afford was Iron city pounders. But that was peer pressure. They called it iron shitty. But now I love the taste. Excellent

    Yes the road is all New! The Road to nowhere. Who spends million dollar. On a road to nowhere. Yes (4) lane highway. Pgh. That’s who. The city streets are all in shambles. Let’s re do a road that goes nowhere. I mean cement and the curbs and the fricken Guardrails Brand New. But let me tell yeah! It’s a hell of a Dragstrip. Half mile. I video (3-4) launches But can’t get them on thread

    Iron City is no longer brewed in Pittsburgh. Now contract brewed in Latrobe at the old Rolling Rock plant.
    Try the new Duquesne brewed there also.

    Rolling Rock used to be brewed in Latrobe Pa. AHB bought the name and now brews it in Jersey. The old Latrobe plant now does contract brewing. Iron city, Duquesne, some Sam Adams.
    I will bring back some Duquesne every time I go home or when someone heads south.
