smknjoe Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 We had a wide assortment of beer: Deschutes NWPA, Firestone Walker Union Jack, Half Acre Daisy Cutter and even Tecate too to go with the jalapeno poppers. Then we switched over to Rare Breed and some Russell's Reserve 10/101.Really jealous of your beer options up there. Do you know if any of your local brews are distributed nationally?

unclebunk Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Really jealous of your beer options up there. Do you know if any of your local brews are distributed nationally?I'm really not sure but I don't think so. The exception, of course, would be Goose Island which really doesn't count I suppose now that they've been bought out. We are indeed very fortunate to have so many excellent micros popping up. The same can be said for Wisconsin and Michigan who produce fabulous beer that is usually available to us here in Chicago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
