Chicagoland Beer Exploration Society

Information

Chicagoland Beer Exploration Society

Every member of the Society (CBES) should aspire to have a beer at every brewery or brewpub located in a day or two bicycle ride distance from Chicago (and, of course, within the city limits).

Naturally, preferable way of getting to is by bike, as for riding back . . . whatever is available, train, bus, horse and buggy, depending on amount of beverages consumed at the destination.

Routes on Ride with GPS, here.

On Facebook, here.

On Twitter, here.

Lists of breweries and brewpubs (and other beer things): on Facebook, and on Twitter.

What time Sunday and which route north?

Comment by Steve A on April 26, 2018 at 5:32am

How late is late on Sunday?  Left to my own devices (or vices), I will likely head north.  Glenview for Ten Ninety or Machushla?  Buffalo Grove for Prarie Krafts?

ugh, plans sat. afternoon and sun. morning. and rain on fri. starting at 2. so either:

  1. a quick visit and try to race back before the rain on fri.
  2. a late start and hope it's not a long wait on sun.

your thoughts? votes?

mmm, delicious:

В 2017 году Mikkeller сварили специальное пиво для
России - русский имперский стаут Black Bear.

Этот сорт стал очередным шагом сотрудничества ребят,
работающих с пивоварней в России, и легенды европейского крафтового пива.
Идея сделать специальное пиво родилась в конце 2016
года, когда представитель пивоварни Миккель Вестергаард посетил Москву с дружеским визитом. Мы, как импортер, специально не влезали в рецепт пива и полностью доверились Миккелю Боргу Бьергсё и его команде - согласовали только что это будет имперский стаут, ну и что надо добавить золота на этикетку )
Уже в мае мы увидели первый концепт этикетки с
медведем и куполами, а в июле ребята пробовали
первый результат еще не дозревшего, но уже уверенно
набиравшего обороты Black Bear.
2 августа этого года пиво было разлито, и вот сейчас, в
канун Нового года вы можете успеть попробовать
результат этого проекта.

21 декабря, в четверг, мы представим это пиво на кранах лучших баров!
