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.

just saw now Active Trans said:

Burnham Greenway Gap: The Burnham Greenway is a fantastic existing trail on the city’s south side, as it runs through the southeastern neighborhoods of the city and goes through southern suburbs, including Calumet City and Lansing, where it connects to the Pennsy Greenway. However, in between the city and southern sections is a 2.5-mile gap. Work on the northern section of the project should begin shortly. However, a bridge over the train tracks near Burnham and Brainard Avenues is necessary to finish the trail and coming to terms with railroad companies is slowing down that process.


sounds like progress!
