As we walk the streets of Downtown, you'll learn about the violent Whiskey Rebellion, hidden former (as well as existing!) speakeasies around the city, how Prohibition affected the region, and all about the revival of craft spirits. Get 4 additional and generously poured samples of whiskey as well.

The tour guide, Corrie, made this trip! She was informative, funny, and enthusiastic! Generous pours of whiskey, while learning about what’s a whiskey, bourbon, rye, etc. Very cool and creative tie-ins to pittsburghs role in whiskey history

Very nice way to spend the afternoon. Aaron was very funny and knowledgeable, the tour is very heavy on history but he keeps it interesting and engaging. The speakeasy was a hidden gem. We enjoyed the tour!
