Lagunitas Chicago

October

 

Back in August, Tony indicated that the tap room/brewpub was estimated for around April/May 2013, with the brewery up and running later in the year. Obviously there's a chance that may have changed since

 

Really? When it was first announced they were building the brewery here it was November opening of the tap room, I thought the latest was more like January/February of 2013?

 

Tap room is close. Talked yesterday with someone who is going to a sneak preview party there next week.

 

I guess I didn't realize they were doing a tap room as well, thought it was just a production facility. BONUS!

 

April is what was mentioned at the time, but obviously the earlier the better if they're now at the "sneak preview" stage.

 

i heard tap room early next year/brewery next fall

 

i wonder how that will be....

how about the fact that their including a bowling lane. that's bonus. and maybe a sofa that was once in petaluma?

 

I'd rather have the saddle seat from the upstairs bar. I hate that i only get to sit there once a year.

 

Can't wait.... when they redid/added to Petaluma I was lucky enough to be there when they moved in the bar furniture and we got the first few drink off the lines at their new bar.....I am hoping to get to the new one too....most likely there will be a industry event and a grand opening party wont there?

 

a sneaky party maybe. it's what i hear. very soon.

 

The event for distributors and clients is tomorrow evening, I'll be attending and reporting back! Hopefully they'll have another fusion batch ready.

 

then i'll be seeing you tomorrow. fusion was good when i had it back at the brewery earlier this year. (in CA)

 

I'll be there as well.

 

Mad hatter costume at the opening?

 

What's the address of the facility? I could do internet research, but don't feel like it...

 

well this was a very solid party. Lagunitas went all out. thank you.

 

How'd the new diggs look??

 

Empty and dark.
