Aurochs Brewing Company

We finally stopped into the tasting room and it did not disappoint! Their Hazy IPA rivals any traditional hazy out there. If you’re there in the fall be sure to try the pumpkin ale! Also the Porter is simply delicious!

This brewery is dedicated to making gluten free beers only. They are delicious and the staff at the tasting room is great. We’re lucky to have this in the Pittsburgh area

Came from Connecticut to visit this gem! I was so excited to have draft gluten free beer. They had 5 beers on tap…the light was my favorite…please sell this in cans! I also really enjoyed the hazy IPA and I usually am a light beer drinker. If you are a celiac and missing beer this spot is a must go!

I found their beer at Burgertory outside of PNC park which was an added bonus.

So excited that I was able to visit this 100% gluten free facility! We did the flights with all five beers they were offering. Loved all of them with my favorite being the Hazy IPA. Definitely recommend checking this spot out when you’re in or near the Pittsburgh area!

Great beer. Only 4 things on tap and only thing in cans to take home was the blonde ale. Very casual atmosphere. Board games and seating area. Bartender was fun to talk to!

Currently due to Covid, the tasting room is closed but they have fun gluten free beers and seltzer only available in person. I purchased one of each of the four packs and a seltzer growler to go. While I have not tried everything, those Idid try have been amazing. If on the east coast and able to swing by, I highly recommend it!

Pure genius! So fortunate to have this dedicated brewery close by. Very friendly & knowledgeable staff. Takeout 4-pack cans & mini growlers as well as full sized glass growlers available. Tours are usually offered & Can’t wait for the tap room to be open again for another beer flight!

This brewery is top notch! The location is easy to find. Parking was not a problem. We entered and were warmly greeted. We brought our two elementary aged kids and there were board games to entertain them- nice plus! Their beer is great!!! Their choices showed a wide variety which as a celiac is AWESOME!!! You can order samplers for $2.50 each or pints and then if you’d like you can crowler or growler any draft to take home or choose from their canned beer. They had a few bagged GF snacks (pretzels, popcorn and there were some cookies it appears in the basket). The shirts and garb were cool. A band was setting up but we were just there for a short stop with the kids.

Good gf beer and snacks! Only gluten-free food allowed in the tap room to insure beers are 100% gf.

Yes

UPDATE:

Recently remodeled and expanded lobby with plenty of seating with multiple new beers on tap offered in pints, sample sizes, and growlers. As of late, they have been partnering with food trucks that offer GF food on some Saturday's which is a real treat. If you can't tell from my previous lengthy review, I love this place and if you are a person with Celiac disease, like myself, you must check this place out.

------------------------

How many completely gluten free breweries do you know of? I can almost guarantee that answer can be displayed on 1 hand... This place is amazing! Can't rave about it more than the rest of the reviews so I'll just explain my experience.

I had been wanting to visit this place for quite some time but the hours the brewery are open can be challenging to coordingate. But I finally managed to get there one Saturday afternoon and walked into the lobby area. Small, cozy, has lot of displayed merchandise, and a small seating area. The employees were eating when we arrived and there was a sign to poke my head into the back and holler for service. At first I felt a little awkward about this but an employee came running up apologizing and was very friendly and inviting. She proceeded to talk about the brewery and how they are 100% GF, even down to the employee meals. Told me that about half the staff is GF and walked me through all the different beers they currently had on tap and prices. A sample size of a beer was $1 (not bad for the amount received in my opinion) and they had 6 different beers on tap that day. So for $6 I had a flight of all GF beers, I was in heaven. Each beer, even the styles that I usually don't enjoy, were very good. It was 2 dark beers, a blonde, a seasonal, an amber, and one other that I cannot remember at this moment. I felt like I was in heaven because I haven't tasted beer in years and it tasted authentic. I bought a growler of the Amber (very reasonably priced) because it was my favorite and it reminded me of the classic lager (tastes a lot like what I remember Yeungling tasting like!). I almost bought the seasonal because it had hints of citrus which was very good. 100,000% recommend checking out this brewery if you can get there when they are open. Life changing and I will be going back soon to refill my growler!

I’m giving it 5 stars for the beer and 3 stars for the ambiance/location. The beer is great. I used to love Hefeweizens, and their new “golden” tastes just like one. They had 5-6 different beers to try, and they were all good! You have to get either a 2oz sampler for $2 or a whole growler for $25, but you can have as many of the $2 ones as you want. I also tried the cookie which was yummy. They only have cocktail tables to stand around- no real seating or anything, but it was fine for the 4 of us.

Amazing. We did a tour for my bachelor party and they gave me a free growler of their amber ale. Beer tasted incredible and was probably the best gluten free beer I've had and I didn't have any reactions.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

One thing which I didn't see mentioned often in the reviews is that this is their main production facility and as a result they do not have a full bar or brewpub attached to it currently. There's no kitchen and they do not provide full pint pours, instead selling tasters. They fill growlers and sell four-packs on site.

We tried all three beers that they had on tap at the time we visited and thought they all tastes great. I particularly liked the session IPA which has a nice hoppy flavor, complements the flavor of the grains well, and wasn't too filling (12 oz is 135 calories according to the nutritional facts on the bottom of the 4-pack - nice!).

They are focusing on distribution for now which is great news - Hopefully they break through into other states soon and I can find their beer back home in Western NY.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Let me tell you I’ve tried ALL of the gluten free beers out there...and there’s a reason why I just drink wine and cider, but this place has the best and I mean the absolute best gluten free beer I have ever had! 10\10 would recommend to both gluten free and non gluten free beer drinkers!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Wherever you are right now, stop what you are doing, drive here and get a beer. This is the first and only beer that I have had since being diagnosed with celiac disease that tastes like actual beer. The entire facility is GF staff is well educated and friendly. You just have to try it to believe it.

Pretty sure it's Aurochs,and they have reopened! The Owners are so welcoming!! As of now they are opened on Saturdays from 12-6. Ingredients are gluten free AND they send out the grains to recheck there wasn't cross contamination while harvested. Beer is naturally gluten free as opposed to other beers where the gluten is removed. Completely safe for celiacs 👍🏻😀🍻

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I absolutely love this brewery! The beer here is excellent, and I don't mean for GF beer... it's excellent period. The entire facility is GF (i.e., employees can't even bring their own non-GF food into the building) and they even offer popcorn and GF pretzel sticks for snacks. If you're hungry for more than snack, you can place an order to Mandy's Pizza (celiac friendly) through your server for delivery. I had such a great experience and can't wait to go back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place is the best gluten free establishment in the world and there is no doubt about it. I'd give it a billion stars if I could.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This place is so much fun! 100% GF beers on tap that are delicious along with Arsenal cider. Fellow patrons and staff were fun and friendly. If you get hungry, they will order you pizza from Mandy's and make sure it is GF.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

good beer..gf snacks..delicious!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Simply put, YES!. stopped by here after we we're passing through and incredibly surprised by everything. Stout, IPA, Amber, Blonde, nitro brown, and pale styles on tap and the bartender allowed me to take a taste of all of them prior to filling up two growler, Incredibly tasty. I'm already looking forward to my next trip to Pittsburgh. Please if anyone from brewery looking at this, you got at least one customer in NY that loves your stuff, for when you start bottling and distribution. Please figure out how to ship or distribute up here!

This place is gluten free heaven for beer lovers. I missed beer so much once I was diagnosed with Celiac's and ciders just don't cut it. These guys make phenomenal brews and this place is one of those most dedicated gf facilities I've ever heard of. You must pay them a visit!
