Chicago Creaft Beer Week highlights, Sunday May 27

Finally, time to put this ten-day frolic away for another year. If I had stayed up late going to more of these events rather than writing about them, I'd be… well, a lot more tired.

Chicago Craft Beer Week highlights, Thursday May 23

Remember my watchword: "Tastings" usually involve free samples of beer. Oh, and have I mentioned that Baderbräu is back? See the rest at my ChiTownonTap Calendar or at Chicago Craft Beer Week's schedule. 5:30 - 8:30 p.m. Baderbräu Returns! Launch Party Binnys South Loop, 1132 S Jefferson St, Chicago On the 10-year anniversary of its disappearance, Baderbräu Chicago Pilsener, Chicago’s landmark “first craft beer,” returns with its original recipe in time for CCBW. The team responsible for Baderbräu’s return, Baderbrau Brewing Company, has spent a two-year journey tracking down the original master brewer Douglas Babcock, rediscovering the original recipe and proprietary yeast strain, and working with brewing partner Argus Brewery to perfect the flavor–all to save this historic Chicago beer from being lost. Be there to experience the return of this landmark Chicago Pilsener at one of the four launch parties this week. Upcoming: Stocks & Blondes, and Maria’s Packaged Goods & Community Bar, Friday. And Hackney’s Printers Row on Saturday... Read more »
