Chicago would be chill for a variety of reasons. Cheap flights for a lot of people. Drivable for a lot of people. Tons of breweries that I assume are in close proximity.

Chicago I would probably go to. The rest of the these goofball ideas? Maybe.


Something that close to my home area would be a good excuse for me to visit. Mrs. Owl could visit family and I could RBSG it up. Otherwise I typically won’t travel that far.

That’s Mrs. Dr. Owl, btw.

I’m overdue for a Chicago visit. Can some Chicago bros do this? Thanks in advance...

I agree with Kyle. I am in Chicago often and have barely scratched the surface on the beer scene. Can’t keep up.

TheAlum should get his shit together and organize RBSG.

However I have an intense hatred of OHare airport and might boycott on that fact alone.

Well, Kyle and Andy, you are both welcome to visit any time.

However, Kyle and Andy, I think there is a lack of a local active group nowadays (as well as people that have the time/desire to put such an event on in the first place) that would be able to put together said event.

Adam, could you perhaps not rain on Kyle and Andy’s parade?

Bottle share at three floyds. Bottle share at goose island. Order a bus and go to 10 random breweries and share bottles. Done. Easy.
