The Erie Downtown Development Corporation (EDDC) and Twisted Elk Brewery are opening the new Twisted Elk Outpost at 36 North Park Row in downtown Erie. The ribbon-cutting ceremony for the satellite location is scheduled for 2 p.m. on July 10, marking a strategic expansion of the Lake City-based brewery into the city’s east side.
Expanding Craft Beer Access in Downtown Erie
According to the brewery, all craft beer served at the new downtown site is produced at its original Lake City facility.

Visitors to the Outpost can expect a rotating selection of craft beers on tap. The brewery confirmed that customers will also have the option to purchase beer to go, catering to both on-site patrons and those looking to carry products home.
Syncing Growth with Urban Revitalization
The grand opening is timed to coincide with Boutique Nights, a recurring shopping and arts event that begins at 5 p.m. on State Street.
The Flagship City District continues to focus on this strategy, encouraging patrons to visit multiple venues, including local retailers and pop-up vendors, during their downtown visits.
