    Does it come in a 24 oz commemorative cup?

    It's a plastic batting practice helmet actually. You can order a triple play and you'll get three helmets; one with nachos, one with deth's Tar, and one with a banana split.

    Is it wrong that I want to pour some of my Deth's Tar into my banana split and make a poor man's Prop 17?

    EDIT- Trademarked

    That makes more sense than how I remember it, was under the impression Lagunitas was fully taking over Wrigley, but if it's only a few taps that'd be less controversial.

    If you want to add an mazing cheeseburger to your bucket list, Au Cheval is 4 miles from Wrigley and worth it. They don't take reservations, go there and put your name on the waiting list. Haymarket is right across the street for a visit while you wait.

    Wow Au Cheval? Why don't you send him to Joliet while we're at it

    Sheffield’s is a pretty solid bar that is 7 min walk from Wrigley. Solid craft beer selection. Has food. And if the weather is nice, a beer garden. It’s also far enough away to not be super crazy. Additionally it’s really close to the Belmont CTA stop. Can catch the red, purple, and brown lines.

    Sheffield’s and Corridor are my to go locations before and after Cubs games.

    Next time you come to town John, we’re hitting it together!

    Also there’s small cheval now, which is a counter service sister restaurant and their burger is phenomenal, and usually not much wait. Close by is map room.

    The burger at corridor is almost as good.

    LOL

    Maybe catch a post game dinner at Alinea if you're looking to get away from all the hot dog and nacho eating peasants at the ball park?

    Ditto Sheffield’s. Always something interesting on tap. Primarily a go to after the game. Less crazy, seemingly.

    Lucky Dorr just opened right next to Wrigley in 2017. Haven’t been but looks great.

    Hanging at Murphy’s for a couple a must. Go early if needed. Should have 3-4 Revolution Brewing on tap. Anti-Hero all day!

    At ballpark? Forget craft. Will have Lags & GI but so what? For me, an Old Style & Dog (mustard, onion) is heaven on earth.

    And sit in the bleachers. In left field. Cuz right field sucks.
