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.

@Bryan, if she doesn't ride, and you don't have a car, how are you going to get back and forth?

@J.A.W., a ridley -- 40% off because it's a 2012!

@Bryan, ride down early, imbibe, and let her drive you home!

Eh, She doesn't ride. Besides, I have a feeling I will be imbibing. I don't like riding drunk.

I'm not above bribery. I do have a bottle of 2010 I would be willing to share with the group if someone felt generous enough to include me.
