Our largest space Eisenhalle (Iron Hall). This spacious room, designed in the style of an industrial loft, pays tribute to Pittsburgh’s more recent Renaissance history and features beautiful views of the city’s skyline. This space is equipped to host cocktail parties, buffet-style meals, and business meetings and features its own private bar.
Eisenhalle is on the second floor of the building, a bit away from the brewpub itself, and thus offers a quieter, more private atmosphere for your event. The high ceilings and windows also create more light and a spacious feel.

This unique outdoor space boasts a quaint European feel, with its cobblestone courtyard, wrought iron gates, and flower boxes. Perhaps the most unique architectural feature of this space is the stone caves and tunnels which were constructed to chill, or “lager,” barrels of beer in the days before refrigeration became commonplace. Penn is one of just a handful of remaining US breweries that still have lagering caves.
