Whats Coming Up


Well this Memorial Day weekend I'll be heading down to Munster, IN to Three Floyds Brewery to take the brewery tour and to imbibe in everything, and I really mean everything that they are serving up down there. I will also be heading across the border into Flossmoor, IL where I will be visiting Flossmoor Station Brewery. I will be spending the day with Head Brewer Matt Van Wyk while we brew a scaled up version of my Biere Bella recipe, a Belgian Golden Strong Ale inspired by the infamous Duvel which I'm sure if you are into Belgian Beer you know all about. I'll post pics and whatever video I can once I am home and I'll let you know how it went. Should be a fun weekend. If you know of any other breweries or good beer bars in that area, drop me a line because I will be on the prowl for good beer Saturday night while I'm down there.

Cheers!

Brian

I forgot about Flossmore. Its been a good 5 years since I've been there. Time permitting, you could take the METRA into the city and then the "L" to the original Goose Island. I need to get to Chicago soon...

I was actually thinking about driving there earlier in the day because I want to go to Sams liquor right across the street from Goose Island. I was there two years ago and they had the Bourbon Barrel Stout on tap and it was pretty amazing.
