Chicago Beer Weekend, April 1-3
Update: Oh, hell’s bells! I was fooling around with my web hosting and somehow managed to blow out my security setting for all of my account. That means I can’t use my happy little Google Calendar tool. So this weekend’s events go back to the “longhand” version, while I try to figure out what I... Read more »

St. Patrick's Week in Beer, March 15-18

Up-Update: Well, boo. I thought I had these issues solved, but it turns out my linked listing are not viewable in mobile browsers. Makes my upset. I'm restoring the listing while there's still time to see what's going on for the 17th.

Update: As thought, more last-minute St. Patrick's events are coming in. So now that my security issues with my calendar app seem to be resolved, I'm testing dropping in my old iframe calendar listings for Wednesday and Thursday.

I continue to paste select highlighted events while I work out how to get my Calendar to feed into the article. Please check my full schedule, which gets added to constantly, at my web app.

Chicago's Week in Craft Beer, March 1-4

Chicago's Week in Craft Beer, March 1-4

Flash! The chicagonow.com site finally upgraded to WordPress' Gutenberg system. Bad News: I can no longer link to my calendar articles through an <iframe> tag to my Google Calendar. Until I get this issue settled, I've pasted in "hard" copy of my current GCal listings, which I may or may not be able to update as I try to figure this out.

No bad news to report this week. Instead, we finally have a few events on a Monday, a new retro-beer from Seipp Brewing, and Two Brothers reopens its Warrenville taproom.
