Lakeshore Beverage is pleased to welcome Aquanaut Brewing Company to our growing family of brewery and beverage partners. Located near Ravenswood tucked into the Bowmanville neighborhood of Chicago’s Northside, Aquanaut specializes in malt-forward, English-inspired recipes — something unique to Chicago’s craft beer scene. We sat down with Eric McNeil, who serves as the brewery’s head brewer and creative director, to hear a little more about the story behind Aquanaut.
Spring is an interesting thing here in Chicago. For many, it seems like winter never actually stops until it’s time to start complaining about the heat again. And while it’s hard to argue with that, each year there seems to be a few short weeks of true spring. Everyone comes out of their winter hibernation to crisp mornings and balmy afternoons. Whether you’re hanging out on the patio or just doing some spring cleaning, here are nine easy-drinking beers with refreshing characteristics to enjoy this spring.

The Chicago Cubs Home Opener is less than a week away and we could not be more excited. And even though this is technically a beer blog, who’s to say we don’t like sports too? In fact, when beer and sports collide (as they so often do in this great city) we want to be there to tell you about it. Thanks to Budweiser, we are giving away 20 pairs of tickets to the Cubs Home Opener against the Cincinnati Reds on Monday, April 11!
