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.

Probably prefer Sunday.

Comment by Rich S on June 29, 2016 at 10:13am

I'm a strong maybe for Sunday. Won't be able to make any Saturday rides.

High 77F-79F. Winds ENE at 10-E at 15 mph. so better to ride out to meet you, then train back.

Its about 35 miles on the trail between Aurora and Crystal Lake.   Its around 40 to Two Bros Roundhouse but longer to Crystal Lake.
