DESTIHL Brewery officially announced today that it will expand distribution of its beers in Pittsburgh, PA beginning May 8, 2017.

In late March, DESTIHL opened a new 47,000sq.ft. production facility in Normal, Illinois. DESTIHL broke ground on the project in June 2016.  “Building the new production brewery is enabling us to move forward again with our expansion into new, exciting markets like Pittsburgh”, said Founder, CEO and Brewmaster, Matt Potts. “We look forward to this opportunity and see a bright future where DESTIHL beers are welcomed into the ever-evolving Pittsburgh craft beer fold. For years, we’ve seen fans in Pennsylvania seeking out our beers. So, we’ve decided to expand our availability in the state with this large metropolitan area.”

In a few short years, DESTIHL has earned multiple awards, including multiple Great American Beer Festival® (GABF) medals, Festival of Barrel Aged Beers (FoBAB) National Wood-Aged Beer Competition 2015 Best of Show, 2016 Best in Show-Runner Up and 2016 Gold for its Dosvidanya® Russian Imperial Stout (aged in bourbon barrels).

DESTIHL’s sour program began several years ago in 2008 with its barrel-aged Saint Dekkera® Reserve Sour Ales, which have also won several awards, and it was that brand that originally got the brewery noticed nationally back in 2011 at GABF. However, the brewery’s notoriety rose in late 2014 to a whole new level with its trend-setting release of the WiLD Sour Series in 4-packs of 12 oz. cans. This Series is a line of bold kettle sours DESTIHL produces with its own wild mixed-culture which is indigenous to the central Illinois brewery.
