A smashing success

April 8, 2025

Quiz: Do you recognize this building?

Hint: It’s located in an old mill-town along the Allegheny River, which is now a favorite destination of craft beer fans.

Answer: It’s the old PNC Bank Branch in Millvalle, which is now the newest and fourth location of Burghers Brewing and their “best damn burger in the city, hands down” according to Neil Glausier, co-owner of the business.

We joined Enterprise Bank to finance Burghers Brewing big development in Millvale. If you look closely, that’s our sign in the window…just left of the doorway. We really appreciate it when our borrowers show others how we helped them.

You can help them too…go have their “Mexican War Street” smash burger and a Lager and be a small business supporter!

Burghers Brewing

There’s a lot of things in the finance and the chasing of money that I’d rather have my toenails pulled out than do.  But this was actually a pretty easy experience.  It requires a ton of back and forth.  But I didn’t feel they were messing around with us.
