Saisons and Sours – Our CCBW Event

Let’s fill this place up!

Chicago has long been known to make world-class stouts and IPAs, but recently many brewers have turned their attention to some oft-neglected styles in the area – saisons and sours.

Come celebrate Chicago’s up-and-coming farmhouse and funk producers. We’ve teamed up with Beermiscuous to host this event on Thursday, May 21st starting at 6:30 PM. THIS EVENT IS NOT TICKETED. Just show up and enjoy!

We’ve assembled the best Chicago has to offer, including:

Transient Artisan Ales – Presque (Wine Barrel-Aged)

Transient Artisan Ales – Ardent (sour saison)

Transient Artisan Ales – Hop Drank (dry hopped Brett farmhouse)

Noon Whistle – Face Smack (Berliner Weisse)

We’ll also be raffling off some saison and sour bottles! Ryan will come packing Tums as well, so hit him up if you need to. We will also have draft beer flavored Jelly Bellies to taste.
