    I have pregame at Corridor during weekday afternoon and night games about 2 hours prior to game time. Never had an issue getting a table to eat and drink before walking over to Wrigley in time for the game. It does start to fill up as game time nears and tables are filled. If just looking to grab drinks and don't mind standing, it should be no issue. Not sure how it is on weekend games.

    Thanks guys, ended up spending a few hours before heading over to the game.

    Octoberfest was pretty decent. Not too sweet. Just enough hop character to let you know it’s there.

    Wizard fight Citra and mosaic ipa was fantastic. 7 bucks for 13oz. Would drink all day long.

    Swamp Dog is the best hazy ipa I’ve had from corridor. The most tree house esque beer I’ve had in a while. It appears untappd disagrees. At $9 for 13oz glass, I’d still happily pay for several glasses if time allowed.

    Dueling Overalls is also $9 for 13oz. It decent but a tad rough around the edges and didn’t quite show off all aspects of a beer the same way that Swamp Dog did just prior. It was a 1 time purchase.


    Food was awesome too. My friend loved the Rueben and fries. I got really fresh tasting turkey sandwich.

    Wizard Fight was the beer that convinced me Corridor was legit.

    Ironically a fight with a wizard convinced me...

    I stopped in for lunch on Saturday. I wasn’t into Swamp Dog but the chinook wet hop beer was pretty darn good. I grabbed a crowler of Overalls and will report back this week

    Dueling Overalls is really good. If you have been into the Hop Butcher or Riverlands beers with Sabro then I think you will dig this

    On-site only for the Smiling Shadows?

    (this may determine whether I stop off tonight for crowlers or not...)

    Agreed. They did a great job with the adjuncts, and I preferred Pecan Pie. The regular BA was fantastic as well. I was surprised at the bourbon presence considering it was only in barrels for 7 months.
