Wigle Whiskey Distillery - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Not my first time here but always a good time for drinks, food and to hang out with friends and family. We came in for the distillery tour. Before the tour Max’s bartending and conversation kept us entertained as we waited. We went downstairs to the lower bar. We met with our tour a had a very interesting tour going back in history even involving George Washington. After the tour we sat down for a talk and tasting. Overall a very informative and fun tour.

Located in the Strip District, Wigle Whiskey has a bar and restaurant and then offers an amazing tour and tasting experience every Saturday. They take you through their process, from using locally sourced grain to crafting award-winning rye, bourbon, gin, rum, and more.
One of the highlights? Learning about Pittsburgh’s Whiskey Rebellion—a wild and pivotal moment in U.S. history. The storytelling makes the experience even more immersive!
The tour includes a spirit tasting, and the guide was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about Wigle’s craft. Whether you're a whiskey enthusiast or just looking for something unique to do, this tour is 10/10!

I came here with my brother just before the new year. we had a great time and I even bought a whiskey bottle to give to my good friend in Jakarta Indonesia for his birthday as he is a whiskey lover.

There is one issue: The whiskey bottle bill was included in the my total bill with a 20% service charge included. Am I wrong to think that the 20% charge shouldn’t be included for the bottle of whiskey I bought? I was tipsy enough I didn’t have the energy to complain or argue. For context, I didn’t get any advice or recs whatsoever on the bottle I bought. Unfortunately, that last moment just left the whole experience unpleasant.

However just a day after, the COO contacted me and responded to this issue and solved it. I really really appreciate the fast response and the focus he gives to customer, making sure that all customers are treated well. I highly recommend this place with such a great experience and customer relations. Next time i am in Pittsburgh, I would come back for a whisky tour! Thank you Alex for your great service.

We came here in a Monday afternoon in January. It was one of the locations on a Pittsburgh whiskey trail pass we had purchased from a separate entity. We had a voucher for the whiskey flight and I was pleasantly surprised to find Threadbare cider on tap as well so I had one of those. Everything was very good. The bartender, Max, was personable and very knowledgable. We tasted a couple other things before we left and bought a bottle to go. There were not many other customers at the time - it was a Monday, a holiday, and it snowed the night before and it was freezing outside. The atmosphere was easygoing and bright. We had an enjoyable time and would recommend stopping here when in the area.

We did a 4:30 distillery tour on Saturday night and then had dinner. The tour was full of great history and we had a great tour guide. We got a cocktail in the beginning, some samples during the tour, and a flight of 4 samples at the end. After the tour we were quickly seated for dinner. The food was delicious too! We will come back when family is in town!

Loved the Whiskey Tour! Highly recommend! Located right next to a parking garage so perfect for out-of-towners like myself. The Tour is just about 1.5 hours long, starts with a cocktail then you get samples during the tour and a sit-down sampling experience at the end with 4 additional whiskey samples. The tour does not require a lot of walking and is great for any level of whiskey lovers - I personally don't drink much liquor but knew my husband would enjoy the experience. Our tour guide was really engaging and knowledgeable. My husband and I loved the tour guides humor and really enjoyed learning about the process of whiskey making as well as the history of the Whiskey Rebellion. Wigle Whiskey has a great selection of flavors. I was pleasantly surprised to find two that I enjoyed - Apple was my favorite!

A bright spot with some good small places and food, along with good drinks. Whiskey or beer. Also they did have some holiday events in another room that was pretty nice for Pittsburgh.

Had a fun little visit here during their Sunday Happy Hour. It is an aesthetically pleasing little building, and seems well maintained and cared for.

My wife and I grabbed a flight each and found a number of enjoyable choices. We also shared the pierogi and sausage plate, which was quite enjoyable. Would definitely enjoy visiting this place again for a full meal experience.
