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.

I’m on my way there now! I’ll be cruising along wearing a RevBrew jersey. Probably won’t be checking my phone much to conserve power but say hi if you see me! I’m on a green Co-op bike from REI.

Consider it twisted.  Plan was to ride Monday, but 3F is closed for the holiday.
