Grown-Up Pizza Party

Remember the frenzy that took over the class as you realized that meant an hour of goofing off with your pals and scarfing down slices? You probably haven’t experienced that excitement in a while but you can still have a pizza party! As college students, pizza is fuel. Fuel for fun, fuel for tests, fuel for the gym. Morgantown has a spattering of some pretty great pizza joints that are worth giving a taste. Brews and pizza await you at Mountain State Brewing Co. The largest and one of the oldest breweries in West Virginia has an amazing selection of craft beers crafted from water at the tip top of the watershed. The oven fired artisan flatbread pizzas are great pairings for the crisp beers. We don’t recommend getting one without the other.
