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.

The public preorder for these beers will begin on our webstore starting Tuesday, November 16 for pickups starting Friday, November 19. Curbside and walk-up pickups begin Friday at noon, where the Taproom will be pouring the featured beers and exclusive draft variants. The Revolution Brewpub will also be pouring all three release beers when it opens at noon on Friday.

I could probably do either, 2 might be a bit better. Let me know what they say!

Comment by bobweiser on November 18, 2021 at 7:08am

great! but now i'm unclear when they're opening. the first link says 12 p.m., but usually they don't open until 2. i just emailed them, let's see if they get back to me. 1 if they open early, 2 otherwise? what would be good for you?

Comment by Kate Kliner on November 18, 2021 at 4:50am

I might be able to, what time are you thinking?

North America’s largest and most prestigious barrel-aged beer festival and competition is BACK! The 19th annual Festival of Barrel-Aged Beer returns to Chicago November 12th and 13th.

I could make it November 12th, anybody else?
