Drinking with the dogs

You can drink beer with some four legged friends. Animal friends is hosting Bark’N’Brew this Friday at Penn Brewery. I am not sure if you can bring your own dog, I think that would be a good idea but I am not sure Penn Brewery would like that. Your $5 admission gets you a lot more than the opportunity to drink with some furry creatures: Boilermaker Jazz Band – one of the BEST in Pittsburgh Raffle Prizes & Auctions Guest Bartenders – Dave & Dave from OnQ.

Kayak tours are great times. I took one out for a paddle over memorial day weekend. Even if you are not an extreme sports enthusiast, urban kayaking is for you. These are super, non-rolling kayaks that any one can paddle. You can stop by Kayak Pittsburgh any time and take one out. This is an awesome way to see the city.
