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.

Yep Jared, I also looked on the facebook page for Howard Street Brewing, and didn't see any official posts that absolutely confirmed their taproom was now open. That said, I hadn't revisited North Shore Cider Company, since they were in their 'soft opening' phase. I am WAAAAY the heck overdue to visit both there, and Peckish Pig(only done one visit there, a year or 2 after they opened?) myself!

Is Howard Street Brewing really open?  Can't find any information that they are...

rain 40% sat. 50% sun. but only 20% tomorrow. Chicago Bike Week Rally and then Imperial Oak?

What is the worst thing in the world?  Limited to a beer drinking cyclist's point of view of course.
