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.

small bar division "grand closing" tonight?

Well this bit of news should make the next ride to Crown Brewing even more interesting.

and, had a nice dinner at coppervine last night, and heard about their 1 year anniversary party, with "specialty rare beers" from Bell's (and wine and cocktails and passed hors d'oeuvres). Tue. 12/2, $25. anybody else like specialty rare beers?

i don't know how much of this upland "tour" de sour (and barrel aged) i can do, but i'd like to make it to at least a stop or two. anybody else?

Comment by bobweiser on October 26, 2014 at 2:02pm

and i got their last bottle of Conquistador De Muerte!

Comment by bobweiser on October 26, 2014 at 1:43pm

what a beautiful day. and a tailwind going down, so i had time for the off-road option. which i regretted when all of a sudden my rear tire started hissing. stopped, took a look -- and it was just a leaf caught between the tire and the brakes.  :-)
