Over the course of the next 6 months I hope to visit some local breweries that are open for tours, tastings, or just general visits. While I have always hoped there would be more around my area, some have been popping in the greater Chicago area plus a few in Lake County specifically. I will write reviews based on these visits or compile information from friends who do. If you want to go to one of these places or have been there already, let me know.
I will break it down into categories such as those I have been to the pub, tastings, or tour.
Some that I have been to but I didn't mention was the other two Rams: Rosemont and Schaumburg, and the Roundhouse in Aurora.
The Roundhouse, when I went, was still American Brewing Company but is now Two Brothers Territory.
