I looked through the forums and didn't see any thread dedicated to Pre-Fobab parties and special events. I know Upland has a tap takeover at Bangers and Lace on Wednsday,http://uplandbeer.com/event/banger-and-lace-tap-takeover/ , and was wondering what other great events will be going on in Chicago this week.
The Village Tap is doing a FoBAB-related thing, as well. Looks like it goes on all weekend: http://villagetap.com/couldnt-get-a...er-event-kicks-off-thursday-november-13-2014/
