Title: Chicago Languish Meet Memorial Day 2015
Post by: Scipio on May 17, 2015, 02:40:49 PM
So i will be in Chicago from Friday May 22 through Memorial Day (which is my parents' 40th wedding anniversary). Passing through St. Louis on the 21st. I wish to engage in beer tourism, and may plan an excursion out to Three Floyds for Saturday, May 23 (not, I know, in Chicago).

I'm in Chicago all the time on business but unfortunately I think I will be there earlier that week, but leaving before Friday. :(

If you've never had it before try Root Beer Beer.  I've had it at a few places up there including Untitled and State and Lake (inside theWit).

Put ketchup on your hot dogs. Make sure they see you doing it.

Not enough notice, dude.  I already have my vacation scheduled for the following week (was going to go to Columbus for Origins, but decided on the beach instead).

Short notice but there's a small chance I could do the Three Floyds thing Saturday.

We're both going to be out of state (two different states) for the weekend. However, if you stopped in Champaign Thursday or say Monday-Tuesday we could probably meet up at a brewery or two.

Schlafly has some beers in their taproom/brewpub that tend to be more interesting than their production beers.  Food is only about as good as it has to be.

I did not make it to Urban Chestnut last time I was in St. Louis but I've heard good things about it.

PM CCR and hope he notices it in his inbox, it is your last best hope.

Isn't CCR way downstate from Chicagoland?

It's definitely worth a shot to try to meet up with him though.

Oh I was thinking he was much further south, like around Springfield or something.
