Founder Scott Smith says the new taproom in Mt. Lebanon's business district along Route 19 will be opening in March.

While it won't be a full brewery but, the taproom will serve beer, hard seltzers, and ciders, among other types of drinks.

Beer production will remain at the company’s Larimer Brewpub location.

East End’s thick crust East End Chewing pizza will be available at the new location as well.

“This year-long construction project represents a very LARGE investment for our small, family owned operation,” East End Brewery said in a release. “Building this taproom and kitchen is actually the single biggest investment in East End Brewing’s history. But Mt. Lebanon has been our family’s home for the last 18 years now, so it just feels right.

An official opening date has yet to be announced.
