Trace Echo

Opening early 2024

Pittsburgh is home to a rich history of beer and brewing and we at Trace are honored to be a part of that legacy. We’re also proud of the ways in which we have worked to evolve the beer scene and the work we’ve done to create a safe, welcoming space in Bloomfield.

As we continue this evolution, we are thrilled to announce Trace Echo - an upcoming satellite taproom located at 23 Miltenberger St. in Pittsburgh’s Uptown neighborhood (also known as The Bluff).

Echo will have a similar vibe and similar offerings to those of Trace Bloomfield on a more intimate level. The small corner lot on Miltenberger and Forbes will feature a cozy bar, a handful of indoor tables, and a large multi-season outdoor space. Echo will also host the first brick and mortar outpost for our friends at Ghost Coffee Collab serving a full espresso bar and eats will be available from a singular, soon-to-be-announced food partner.

Per our Co-Founder Dave Kushner, “The source [of Echo] is Trace, but Echo is its own entity,” he says. “It will sound like the source, but it will also sound different.”

Working with our local partners at Epic Development, we plan on preserving as much of the original charm of the more than 100 year old space as possible to build a retro, yet modern neighborhood bar. Windows will wrap around the storefront’s corner creating a bright and welcoming environment during the day and a private retreat once the sun sets.

We hope to grow with new area partners and create a space focused on supporting the Uptown community while also bringing the relaxed comfort of Trace to a new location. Slated to open in early 2024, we’ll be sharing more details plus our grand opening date over the course of the next few months - check back here for updates!
