    Do they fill crowlers of all their beers or just certain ones?

    So if I was going to be in OBT for a few days, I would also definitely get to Beer House in Lombard, Old Town Pour House in Oak Brook and Red Arrow in Elmhurst (new place that is self-serve, pay by the oz). Lots of great bottle shops nearby too: Ardmore Station, Sal's Beverage World, Binny's.

    Beer Hous just had an Odell tapping (new to Chicago recently), not sure what they have left but it's a solid place. This may be too far out of the way depending on your time, and I know hanging out in a grocery store may not sound appealing..but there's a Whole Foods that just re-opened in Wheaton (about 20 minutes from you) that now has 24 taps and so far has been having killer local taps. Also, many places are starting to tap KBS as well now, so you might be able to find that if you look around beermenus.

    I am sad that Swanky Smack is seasonal, but can't wait for the cans of the Guava Gose.

    Will be headed to Noon Whistle to check the place out this Friday. After all the positive reviews and feedback, I figure it's time.

    I would wager to bet that 8 out of 10 people that have visited NW for the first time missed the turn into the lot (myself included).
