In what town was Flaig's Barrels located?
Millvale, PA.
North of Pittsburgh, PA.
It sat up on a little pine covered knob of a hill, in an area that was actually quite built up. It was like it's own little oasis or sanctuary.
Quite a place....
Yep.
Charley owned 11 acres of down town Millvale, and it was the best 11 acres too, with that hill he had his shop and store on. Magnificent location.
