“The Steel City Big Pour has taken us on an incredible journey,” said Mike Gable, Executive Director of Construction Junction and co-creator of The Steel City Big Pour. “After much success with this annual event, we’ve made the bittersweet decision that Big Pour 16 will be the Last Pour. We recognize that in a mature craft beer market with lots of opportunities to participate in tasting events, it is time for us to create new fundraising opportunities to support our efforts at Construction Junction. To announce ‘last call’ on The Steel City Big Pour was a very emotional decision, as this event has become part of the DNA of our organization. Over the last 15 years it has grossed over $2.8 million dollars supporting our mission, with over 35,000 tickets sold, and generating loads of good will. We are humbled by the community’s support. This Last Pour is our chance to celebrate with the greater Pittsburgh community, the craft beer and local food industries, all while honoring the lasting impact we’ve made together supporting sustainability.”

 

With an impressive lineup of local and regional craft breweries, mouthwatering food vendors, fantastic musical guests, and talented artists, from the first pour to the final sip, Big Pour 16 promises to be a sensory experience that will have attendees raising their glasses in nostalgic celebration. Every ticket purchased for The Steel City Big Pour supports the invaluable work of Construction Junction.
