Saisonathon 2019
Join us as we celebrate saisons with our third annual Saisonathon event during Illinois Craft Beer Week! We’re switching things up a bit this year. Same amount of interesting and diverse saisons – many brewed locally – but at a new location!
It’s all happening Tuesday, May 14, 2019 at Forbidden Root beginning at 5 PM. All types of saisons will be on tap, from those fruited, to those barrel-aged, to just standard saisons. Saisons go well with food and Forbidden Root’s got you covered, from their delicious burger (ranked 9th best in Chicago) to their $1 wings in three different sauces.
