They were destined to fashion an old watering hole into a unique place that would bring people together out of similar taste for great food and better beer.
In need of a new face for the Rivertowne -- that would pay tribute to friends of the past and represent new bonds of the future-- arose their mascot, Wylie the fish. Personal preference led to additional taps; offering a diverse variety of brews. This became a driving force that established Rivertowne as a destination bar; drawing in the beer enthusiast locale.Â

A collective passion for beer inevitably led to a conversation about creating a brand they could call their own. As plans were being made for the brewery they decided a new look was in order. Wylie the fish now stood beside the Pittsburgh city scape, a move that would trace them back to their roots no matter where the beer might take them.Â
