I never make it down to Chicago so just curious if anything worthwhile is happening tomorrow? Tentative plans to hit Half Acre and Revolution. Was hoping there would be some kind of event going on but it seems all the good stuff was yesterday and today. Anyone have any recs?
3 Floyds has an event on Saturday down in Bridgeport. http://coprosperity.org/2014/02/three-floyds-beertacular/
Northdown is having an event. https://www.facebook.com/events/627583660624043/ Local Option has Bourbon County Barleywine & Darkness on tap: http://www.beermenus.com/places/1255-local-option
Skinny Puppy at the Vic! That Three Floyd's event at the co-pro sphere on Saturday is going to be insane. If I wasn't visiting South Carolina on I would totally be there. David Yow (of Jesus Lizard) is playing and every co-pro beer event is amazing. Friday is Firkin Day at the Half Acre tap room. They have a killer list right now with the FFF Shewolf collab, Baume chocolate rye stout, Chocolate Camero milk stout, quakerbridge barley wine, a ESB, and the usuals (daisy cutter, pony pils, over ale brown ale) plus whatever the firkin ends up as. If you do hit up the half acre tap room you can bring your own food. There's Bad Apple for burgers across the street, anong for thai, and Apart pizza delivers to the tap room. Kuma's on the north side is always coma inducing. Or you could do cary out from Kumas (or nearby Pork Shoppe BBQ) and walk to the RevBrew tap room. Good Island Clybourn has a easy cruising session able menu if you stop by http://www.gooseisland.com/pages/clybourn_beer_menu/128.php
northdown is always solid. and there are plenty of good places nearby. and half acre just a short cab up the street
I think we will be starting at Northdown. Not sure where after that. Perhaps to Half Acre for the Baume Firkin
if u hit northdown, my buddy brent might be working (nickname is toasty or toast). good guy. stocky build long beard and hair cant miss him. looks like "the dude". great guy and fun to talk too. have a good time. i live in the neighborhood, if i get a chance tonight maybe ill stop in. what time u going?
Off work at 3:30 in Lake Forest and probably driving straight there, so 4:30-ish is my guess. Meeting a buddy there.
Check out the Binnys BCBS event thread. Everything on the beer list should still be on tap today besides Proprietors and Cherry Rye
