PITTSBURGH, PA — It doesn't get any more Pittsburgh than this: Turner Dairy of Penn Hills, known for its cartons of iced tea, has teamed with Iron City Beer to begin producing Iron City Beer + Turner's Iced Tea.

Turner officially announced the long-rumored team-up on Monday as the first batch of the new brew made its trip down the canning line.

"It took nearly three years of development to get the balance just right, and we can’t wait to share it with yinz," Turner stated in a Facebook post. " It’s not just another boozy iced tea. It’s the perfect combination of two of the city’s most iconic beverages."
