    Agreed, this looks good. Nice clean formatting too. Maybe a way to incorporate column headings? (e.g., Breweries). Figured it out but wasn't clear on first look (to me anyway). Probably just me though. Good luck with it.

    Thanks for the feedback. I agree with you. I was thinking that when I was reviewing it today. I'm going to talk to my programmer about inserting those headings. Many thanks!

    Pretty cool. What resources do you use to gather info for these events? How would breweries get added to your list?

    Thank you mychalg9!
    I use a combination of direct emails from breweries, news from different beer Facebook groups I belong to, as well as scouring breweries/bars Facebook feeds and websites.

    Sorry to anyone who has had trouble with my Chicago Craft Beer Event page the last couple weeks. We had a troublesome technical issue that just got resolved a couple days ago, and we're back up and running:
    http://www.barnative.com/2015/10/05/bar-natives-guide-to-chicago-craft-beer-events/

    Plus (no need to start a new thread), I've added a post with current Groupon deals for Chicago area breweries. Never hurts to save a few bucks. Cheers!

    Thanks for posting the update. I have used your page quite a bit, and did notice some strange things over the past week or two. Very glad to hear you got it resolved, and thanks for the Groupon deals page!
