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.

saw a deer, got snowed on, rode with a raptor. General Tso's beef rib with 1-year kimchi and Deth by Plums, yum. had to take the train (and a nap).

heading south again on sat. when Darkness Will Fall on Imperial Oak. which would make it a long day, and darkness might fall on us, too, but i'm tempted.
