Here's to the Black and Gold

Matt and I made a trip to Pittsburgh to see the sights and to see the Steelers play the 49ers. Here's some highlights.

First stop on the trip was the Church Brew Works and ... beer! This restaurant/microbrewery is located inside an old church. Excellent beer. Excellent food. Pierogies with bratwurst and sauerkraut inside. Brilliant!

Here's where the beer is brewed. Where the altar used to be.

This had to have been one of the most awesome pizzas we've ever had. Monterey Jack cheese, smoked chicken, sun dried tomatoes, red onions, and almonds.

Here we are outside the Church Brew Works. But we did do other things on our trip besides eat and drink...

On the morning of the game, we took the incline up to the top for an awesome photo opportunity. That's Heinz Field over my shoulder. And for a change of pace, we took a BOAT to the game!


Here's a shot from the game. Notice the number 77 and the 7. 777. It's everywhere. The seats were awesome. We were in the end zone about 20 rows from the field. Very sunny. A little sunburned. And oh yeah, the Steelers won.

Looks like you had a great time. Chris has been to the Church Brew Works - we have a pint glass in our bar...actually it's packed in box # 289 in the vault waiting for our house to be built, but I digress!
