MBB is currently sitting in my office mail room in Washington, D.C. waiting for pickup.

Hint: the box is headed west. Lol

Chicago dudes, if I were flying into Midway next Thursday at about 11 are there any breweries or nice beer bars in to occupy my time until my buddy gets off work at 5pm in the near vicinity to either Midway or Wrigelyville?

I'd probably recommend Revolution or Half Acre, but I'm not really sure where they are located with respect to where you will be...definitely worth looking into.

Of course there is always Goose Island as well...

myersk27 · 10-31-2014, 07:57 AM

Actually might also recommend HopLeaf....pretty good beer bar with good food as well.

Nice, thanks man. I will look into all these options.

Just picked up my first sixer of the season of Celebration Ale.

Me too, great beer as always!

UNC41 · 10-31-2014, 09:42 AM

I enjoyed my first two Celebration Ales last night. It was delicious as always; my favorite Sierra Nevada beer.

MtSkier · 10-31-2014, 10:35 AM

Hopleaf might be the best option. Nothing really close to MDW, but Hopleaf is a bit closer to Wrigley than Half Acre or Rev

dre2142 · 10-31-2014, 12:54 PM

Winter beers hitting shelves.

Roose13 · 10-31-2014, 02:04 PM

This year's Breakfast Stout is incredible. Lots of chocolate and coffee in this one.

crashintonickdm · 10-31-2014, 02:11 PM

currently yards brawler is my favorite.

It's the same every year man. Glad you enjoy! It's awesome. I don't leave a store these days without a four pack.

My least favorite of the "seasonal" beers. Christmas beers don't do anything for me. But glad they are out for people to enjoy.

Nah, last year it was a little off for me. I wasn't the only one who thought this down here. Maybe SJ got a weak batch.

MDPrompter · 11-01-2014, 03:55 AM

Was it last year Founders got a new bottling line or something like that and f'ed up the first run of BS bottles?

I remember the first batch I had wasn't as coffee forward as it usually is, but I wouldn't call that "off". It doesn't help that we didn't get bottles locally until almost 2 months after the bottle dates.

jmkratt · 11-01-2014, 02:26 PM

Wicked Weed Amorous is pretty damn fantastic.

coolhotwaves · 11-02-2014, 07:19 AM

Jubelale is back, one of my favorite seasonals that is readily available.

cpxc. · 11-02-2014, 10:58 AM

waited in line for the release at woodlahands today.

in line got to try bodhi by columbus, farmer's reserve citrus by almanac.

pathetic · 11-03-2014, 01:30 PM

Gf's father gave me a Kulmbacher Eisboch on saturday. Not sold in NH, we have to go to a distributor in MA to get it

I felt bad taking his last one so we split it. very good beer. If anyone has access to a 6 pack i suggest picking one up. it's a shade over 9% and will run you around $16.

dre2142 · 11-04-2014, 04:24 AM

Had gor'd last night on tap at churchkey in DC. Big fan

Roose13 · 11-04-2014, 07:48 AM

Big Bad Baptist is incredible fresh. Love this beer. But I remember having it after a few months and it just totally lost it's character, which I've heard is a problem with that beer. I saw it posted in here earlier but definitely drink that big bad boy fresh.

Also, Founders Harvest Ale is just glorious.

dre2142 · 11-04-2014, 07:57 AM

MBB is on the truck somewhere west of maryland. Delivery today....

I tried my best!

Damn, that's an impressive list. Obviously, those breweries are amazing, but definitely check out Pannepooch Reserva from Hair of the Dog as well. Really good BA quad that he made with De Struise for their 20th anny last year.

mposey34 · 11-04-2014, 09:58 AM

That's a nice tap list from Jester King. I picked up a couple bottles of O&P and a few of the Kollaboration a couple weeks ago. Had the Kollab while there, it was nice. Pretty dry, a lot of farmhouse style funk.
