Penn Brewery was in the news last week as the Urban Redevelopment Authority approved a $300,000 loan to new investors, including Penn founder Tom Pastorius, who have negotiated to buy the business from Birchmere.

But Mr. Pastorius has said that that deal is contingent on the real estate having new ownership. The North Side Leadership Conference has been negotiating with E&O Partners, which owns the brewery site, but they have not yet come to a deal.

More details in tomorrow's paper...

food: restaurants, places: north side, entertainment: bars, pgh history, pgh culture, alcohol
