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.

I belong to a riding group that uses groups.io

Okay thanks Yasmeen. 

As for other ideas, I think some messaging apps can be used on desktop browsers.

Ok, I guess my post was invisible...

Meetup?

Any other ideas?

Google Groups works well for another ride group Im in (although riding solo these days).

Nah, don't worry. I'm trying to think through how to support the group concept. Plus, this isn't going to happen tomorrow. Just worried about the vibe on the general forum and it'll take time to put something in place.
