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.

And for extra credit, the Old Plank Road Trail on Memorial Day? Rock Island from LaSalle Street at 8:30, maybe a quick breakfast at Chenchos Fine Mexican Restaurant, ride at 10. On the way back, unfortunately Blue Island, Open Outcry, and Marz will all be on holiday. But Alulu will be open!

Thanks for the ride, Bob, et al., and the Special Gift.  What a nice way to start the season.
