The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is reporting on 2006/05/19:
"....[Inbev]Belgian owner announced plans to put it [Latrobe Brewing] on the market and sell the Rolling Rock brands to Anheuser-Busch for $82 million...
...Anheuser-Busch will begin brewing Rolling Rock and Rock Green Light in August at its Newark, N.J. brewery."
Better get over to visit Latrobe Brewing before it goes the way of the Dodo bird - extinct.

For an American Lager, Rolling Rock is top notch. They recently started giving tours, so me and a collegue drove over to Latrobe while in PA doing some work in Pittsburgh. The tour was very nice. They take you directly on the floor of the brewery, bottling/canning, and packaging lines. Very well done. It was nice to see a lot of old RR Breweriana outside the gift shop. Very well done!

I have grown up on Rolling Rock. To all the negative reviews I say this... Drink what you enjoy! I ENJOY Rolling Rock X pale, a beer without bitter aftertaste. For ME this is the BEST beer I have ever had! Drink what you enjoy and be merry, and scuttle the reviews! Try it if you love pale ale!

Dude, go back: Latrobe is now giving tours. And don't stoop to the snide remarks about the river and the tires; as if. Just because you weren't smart enough to call ahead, doesn't mean they're not smart enough to use pure water for making beer (and just how much smarts would THAT take?).

In college I went with a group to the Rolling Rock brewery only to learn that they did not give tours. We were depressed after driving all the way from Milwaukee. There was a river right by the brewery that had a bunch of old tires floating in it, possibly where the water comes from?

Do you offer tours of your brewery?? I have toured Duquesne Brewery, Iron City Brewery, Guinness in Dublin and several micro breweries. I would like to tour your brewery on March 15, 2003. Will you invite me and my wife?? Thanks.

First of all, RR is the only beer I drink and is the only one I can swallow. It is light, refreshing and doesnt leave that bitter beer taste in my mouth. For one that doesnt like most beers, this is a real accomplishment. Ive grown up on RR and as for the guys on here who think it is 30 mins from Canonsburg and comes from dirty river water...that would be it is more like an hour and a half from you if you drive fast and get no traffic, AND that would be Pittsburgh Brewing Company that the other guy is most likely talking about with the river. Rolling Rock is from spring water in Latrobe. Maybe you should know your facts before trashing something. RR FOREVE

Having grown up on RR, I may have a little more insight then most people. This used to be an excellent, quality pale beer. Once Labatts bought the brewery, they turned it into a generic, marketable and just plain terrible tasting beer(Skunk Smell & Taste). Sort of what most Canadian beers taste like.

Refreshing "OLE 33" is very enjoyable. Reviews from G. Michael Yingling stating that latrobe is 30 minutes from canonsburg shows clearly he is clueless!bill from bellfonte is just as confused, what RIVER are you talking about? Bill have you SEEN the LATROBE RESERVOIR?

Rolling Rock has long been one of my favorite beers. Not because it's particularly great tasting or perfectly balanced or made according to any lofty German or Belgian purity standard and certainly not because it's perceived as being "trendy"...not by any stretch. I drank it back when it was commonly refered to as being "consistently non-consistent", which is no longer an issue. I still drink it today because it is a simple, non pretentious, honest (not brewed in NY,TX and/or WI while purporting to be imported or from Boston), refreshing beer. Rolling Rock is more likely to sponsor a Tractor Pull than a NasCar event and they don't charge an arm and a leg for their modest one brewery beer. The industry could use more "Rolling Rocks" and fewer beer snobs.

Good Lord! Are there really people out there who enjoy this beer for its flavor? Or is it the marketing of the mysterious '33' or the fact that if you drink enough of it you'll get drunk? This budcoorsmiller knockoff is for those shallow people who like to watch Oprah while they eagerly await their next government check! Trendy? Fashionable? God help us all if it is. Have any of you ever actually SEEN the river that the water for this beer comes from? Ugh.

I would of never guessed so many people who think Rolling Rock is the best beer out there would actually visit a site dedicated to rating breweries, brewpubs, and beer bars. It's sort of like a Priest rating birth control devices. What's next, Motel 6 being listed as a 5 star hotel?

This is the beer of beers. There are many stories about the name Rolling Rock and picture of the horse head on the bottle, but I am going to set the story straight. One day down in Latrobe, two drunk guys were driving along and a horse ran out into traffic and was hit by oncoming cars. Now this wasn't a pretty site, and one of the drunks said the horse looked like a big rock rolling across the highway, hence Rolling Rock. Oh yeah, that number "33"... well that's how many times that poor horse was pummelled on that lonely highway. Sad story....... but excellent beer.

I would definitely agree with my good friends steve and chris who also enjoy Old #33. Not only is it a great quality beer, it taste great and is a beer that you can drink till you pass out. By the way, G.Michael Yingling, you must be a zima fan ya rim job.

I feel that i need to comment on this brewery, being that its about 30 minutes away from me. It is a small brewery (micro) that produces ONE macro (budmillercoors) quality beer, nothing more or better. So if you like macro quality beer but want a beer that has a different identity, Rolling Rock is for you. If you want micro quality beer, steer very clear.

Rolling Rock is hands down my favorite beer in the United States Of America. It sends chills up my spine just thinking about that green bottle full of "liquid laughter". That's why my new favorite number is "33" ,the same number painted onto the side of every Rolling Rock bottle.

Rolling Rock Extra Pale is brewed mountain springs, in Latrobe, PA by the Latrobe Brewing Company, established in 1893. Rolling Rock was first introduced in 1939, using the same label still used today. The name Rolling Rock came from the Rolling Rock Estate, a horse ranch outside of Latrobe, hence the horse head on the label. See http://members.aol.com/Lydon71/33.html
If you like a smooth beer without any bitterness, you will enjoy Rolling Rock Extra Pale.
