Transient Tap Room Question

I was just at Transient Memorial Weekend, and yes Chris had plenty of bottles to go of different varieties. I picked up some Buckley (in bombers this year). As far as growlers fills, not sure, I didn't ask or see any empties for sale. But it couldn't hurt to bring a few in!!

Tapistry is right across the street, had their imperial IPA which was decent. Just had one there as I was the driver that day.

 

Have been to both places twice over the past 2 weeks. Transient has bottles to go as well as growler fills, although I think they may not allow fills of each of their beers (I seem to remember hearing this past weekend they were only filling with Obligatory, their IPA?).

Tapistry is bigger, more comfortable and family friendly, with a small area for children to play, and serves food. On beer alone though Transient dominates hands down.

 

Currently only Obligatory is available for growler fills. There is usually bottles for sale as well. Keep an eye on Facebook as he usually updates it with bottles to go, other news, etc.

 

On Saturday there were 6 different bottles for sale & both times that I've been there they've only done growler fills of Obligatory. Tapistry is literally across the street so park on the street & you can walk to both

 

Stopped by today - three or four (styles) bottles available. Picked up some win Bigly; growlers of Obligatory and Cromulent to go. Opened Cromulent tonight - really digging it!

 

To add to the above, the Transient taproom is great. Small but windows open to the street in nice weather. Beers are fantastic.

Really unimpressed with Tapistry beers but he food was fantastic. I had an awesome sandwich there.

 

I stopped by yesterday as well. I passed on the growlers as it had already been a very expensive beer weekend. I now regret that decision. I should have grabbed one of each...

 

Had Cromulent for the first time yesterday at the Transient Reserve Chicago release event. IMO the best hoppy beer/APA that Chris has put out to date. The nose was killer

 

Anybody know what will be available to go today? What ever happened to the Obligatory and Flightless cans mentioned a couple weeks ago right before JiL and Cromulent were released?

 

patience my dear friend, patience

 

Any chance you'll change your avatar with the passing of George 'The Animal' Steele?

 

Regular Buckley, or Buckley Light?

Nice time warp back to 2016

 

Look at the date of the post, this was last year.

 

Haha, didn't even check

 

Are Obligatory and Exsqueeze Me? on tap? I'm assuming the cans have sold out.
