    I am wondering if anyone has seen anything from Great River Brewing in Chicago? I'm specifically looking for Redband stout. (Love this stuff!) Has anyone seen it near here? I know Dixon, IL has it, but I am wondering if if has made it any farther east yet?

    As far as I've ever seen, it hasn't come anywhere near the greater Chicagoland area.

    That's what I suspected.

    I've bought some in Peoria before. I believe I saw it in Champaign too.

    Lots of GR at both Friar Tucks and HyVee in Peoria, dunno if that's closer to where you're at than Dixon or the Quad Cities...sometimes Friars has fresh stuff and sometimes they dont; HyVee doesn't have all of the GR stuff all the time, but theirs is perhaps a bit fresher...LOVE the Redband as well :slight_smile:

    I'm in Chicago, so unfortunately none of these are very close. I may have to stock up next time I go home to visit.
