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.

Consider it a metric century? You'll be overachieving;-)

what date in September?

Comment by bobweiser on August 8, 2013 at 9:16am

september is national century month, so i was thinking about making the ninth step ride a century. clock tower to 3 floyds to flossmoor station back to clock tower would be about 80. any ideas about how to add another 20?

A last-minute inspiration! Go out with the Chicago Cycling Club to Hegewisch and Beyond, then continue to Crown Brewing in Crown Point. Then find our way back somehow.

73.6 miles round-trip, more or less, from the 31st St. starting point. 15 to 19 mph with George.

In case anyone didn't receive yesterday's email ... hope to see some folks at Dryhop tomorrow around 11:15-11:30.  Revolution's tap room on Kedzie around 2.  Happy 4th!
