With the spirit of Halloween stirring in the air, the team at Lakeshore Beverage put together a list of 5 beers to try before you die. The list features trusted stalwarts, Bell’s Two Hearted and Duvel, along with a few whales like Founders KBS, Goose Island Bourbon County Stout Coffee, and Gueuze Tilquin Oude Quetsche. If you come across one of these delightful treats in your beer travels, be sure to give them a try.
Watch the video below as our Training Manager, Chris Kolodziej walks us through each beer. Spoiler alert: his evil laugh is terrifying.
As the Cubs fight to regain control of the NLCS, Budweiser is bringing in some special beer for the fans at Wrigley Field. Brewed at their original St. Louis brewery, Cubs fans will be able to enjoy “Brewery Fresh” Budweiser at Game 3 of the NLCS. The beer was kegged and shipped on Monday, then delivered to Wrigley on Tuesday morning by our operations team.
The beer will be available at the Budweiser Bleacher Bar where one of Anheuser-Busch’s brewmasters will be on hand so fans can truly “taste Budweiser like a brewmaster”. Watch the video below to go behind-the-scenes of delivering the beer to Wrigley Field.
We’re a long ways away from beach season which means it’s time to layer up and crack open some of our favorite fall beers and ciders. Lower temps warrant higher ABVs and more flavorful beers that you can take to a bonfire, tailgate, or your next Halloween party. Here are nine essential fall beers and ciders that we’ll be drinking until Santa comes down the chimney.
Be sure to use our Beer Finder to locate one (or three) of these beers near you. Read More
The 15th Annual Festival of Barrel Aged Beers (FOBAB) is the world’s largest celebration of wood and barrel-aged beers, hosted by the Illinois Craft Brewers Guild.

There are parties, and then there are PARTIES. Our event with Alaskan Brewing at Moosejaw last Thursday was the latter. We came, we ate, we drank, we had a frozen t-shirt contest, some of us did pull-ups, and one of you went home with a Yeti cooler thanks to Moosejaw.
A big thanks to Britography for documenting the evening and Cody from Cage & Aquarium for keeping the tunes going all night. Miss the party? Bummer. There will be more. Be sure to sign up for our mailing list to receive an invite to our next Secret Beer Party!
