Whiskey Walking Tour

Overview

Our cocktail tour! From the mill to the still, whiskey has been a cornerstone in Pittsburgh's history. Come downtown for our whiskey tour where you will discover how whiskey has fueled political, labor and social movements throughout the region. Begin and end your tour in style with a Prohibition cocktail at the Ritual House and an Old Fashioned at the Rebel Room. As we walk the streets of Downtown, along iconic architecture, you'll learn about the violent Whiskey Rebellion in Pittsburgh, hidden former (as well as existing!) speakeasies around the city, and how Prohibition affected the region.

**Please note: This is NOT a bar crawl but a whiskey history tour that includes two handcrafted cocktails. This event is 21+ only, no minors please.

Corrie was an incredible tour guide. She was really knowledgeable about Pittsburgh's whiskey history, but also exceptionally fun. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone that wants to have a good time and learn some history along the way. All around great experience!!

Corrie was an excellent guide. She is so knowledgeable about Pittsburgh, and clearly loves her city. We were amazed to learn that Pittsburgh has quite a storied whiskey (or whisky if you're from a country with no "i") making history! Corrie made the tour fun and factual. Downtown Pittsburgh is truly lovely. We learned that the US Steel Tower is made from exposed steel designed to weather to a rust finish. The Alcoa building is made from aluminum, and the PPG building is glass. We enjoyed learning the Wigle story and how they challenged the law a few years back and were able to make changes. The Wigle Whisky shots were appreciated, too! Definitely recommend this tour.

This was a great adventure. Because of Covid some of the places that would normally be open were closed. They did give us great samples and recommendations of what to do. I learned more about the culture and history of the city. Overall great experience.
