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.

Plastic surgery, to make your ears more mask-compatible? Start a trend!

Ah, I misunderstood the complaint, I thought you were struggling with both helmet and mask sizing.  And you are right, the ear saver does not do anything to change facial coverage, but it gives you options to modulate the tightness around the face...maybe go with the full bandana treatment then like an old west bandit?

The ear savers can help solve your mask issue if not your helmet issue:

These ones are adjustable enough that you should be able to find a comfortable setting and not get those mask headaches one gets from having their ears pulled forward all day.

  1. as opposed to what, merch?
  2. bacon jam burger. i was tempted by the juicy pulled pork smothered in white bbq sauce, piled on a pretzel bun with munster cheese and angry onions, but i'd been hearing beef was getting hard to get.

1. It's hilarious that Imperial Oak's "products" page is mostly cans, bottles and growlers of beer.

2. Bob, we need some context on that burger? chicken sammich?
