Information

Chicagoland Beer Exploration Society

Every member of the Society (CBES) should aspire to have a beer at every brewery or brewpub located in a day or two bicycle ride distance from Chicago (and, of course, within the city limits).

Naturally, preferable way of getting to is by bike, as for riding back . . . whatever is available, train, bus, horse and buggy, depending on amount of beverages consumed at the destination.

Routes on Ride with GPS, here.

On Facebook, here.

On Twitter, here.

Lists of breweries and brewpubs (and other beer things): on Facebook, and on Twitter.

Any destination(s) in mind?

Comment by Rich S on July 14, 2015 at 1:09pm

Anyone else have a day off tomorrow and feel like riding out to some breweries? 

Comment by djm on July 6, 2015 at 1:23pm

Natürlich, Serge.  Glad you had a good ride.  I was tempted but aim not to be out too late on Sundays.
