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.

So from Kenosha, we'd be taking metra back into town? I might be able to get Mrs Duppie to come along on our tandem.

Doug left me a voicemail the day after the trip to Lake Geneva. He thanked everyone for "putting up with him."

Whatever happened to Doug anyways?

I'm down for a lazy July 5th ride. I might be down for the Kenosha ride. July 20th is my birthday so we will see.

I just noticed that this group existed. Do I need a Long Haul Trucker for these rides? I'm afraid my upright hybrid will get uncomfortable on long rides.

It's only a few more miles past the state line to Kenosha.  I know the McClory Trail goes into Wisconsin, but not into downtown Kenosha.

Comment by Rich S on June 24, 2013 at 8:56am

If the trails and riding up there are good then I might be down.

Drat. I'll probably be in Petaluma before that.

Lagunita's opening slipped into August. Nevermind.
