        @Traser2g:

        Just did the Massachusetts beer pilgrimage. Treehouse, then some BBQ, liquor store, then out to Boston for Trillium and Night Shift, then Moes Tavern to cap off the night with a BCBS and an Alla gash Triple

        Nice work…whats the other Treehouse you managed to get?  I see triple shot...I want to make it up there one day

        @Broark:

        Damn, nice haul!
        Anyone familiar with the Chicago beer scene?
        It's looking like I'm going to be up there in a couple weeks, so if there's anything I shouldn't miss out on let me know!

        I just went in November and I would recommend finding a good tap house.  When I went we went to Local Option, they always have a great selection and its a really unique bar.  Brewery wise, Half Acre and Revolution are solid.  We also made the trip down to Three Floyds which I recommend, it's only 45 minutes from the city (if you have a car).  Also, might be worth going to Goose Island Clyborn (original location). They put bourbon county on fair amount from what I heard.  And bottle shop, Beer Temple.  Hope that helps a bit 🙂

            Gotcha on the Saison, thanks Seul!  It was a table share and one I've never seen before.  Admittedly I know little about Sours, Saisons, etc but I'm trying to learn.

            From TH they had Bright, Double Shot, and Drive Train. The Triple Shot was from like a week prior that we all shared after lunch. If you haven't been to TH before plan on getting there EARLY.  If you go on a Saturday hit me up, I may go out too.

              Not really my preferred style, but pretty drinkable, nonetheless.

                Had one last night Chris. Btw I'm doing that overdye project we talked about as I type. Finally got a galvanized tub this morning. Drinking a Heady whilst boiling, of course.  😛

                            @broark so I asked about some good Chi spots. For brewery there's obviously the Goose Island Taproom. Right over the border in IN he said 18th Street Brewery has good beer and great food. Non brewery he said check out Maria's or Fischmanns  Hope that helps!

                            Edit:  Also it would be interesting to check out Gibsons which is always on the show The League. Always wondered if they actually film there.

                              Great, thanks for the tips @Traser2g and @Ndubya94!
                              Looks like I'll be there the first week of March, not sure how long and how much time I'll have dedicated to beer but I'll be sure to check back in and post my results. Maria's looks pretty sweet.

                                        Clown Shoes Chocolate Sombrero-similar to Prairie Bomb but easier to get and way cheaper. Not on same level but it's good

                                        Night Shift Awake - Very coffee forward, great porter

                                        Tree House Bright - so fresh, so good

                                            This was good.  Better than I expected, in fact.
