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!
We hope each of you enjoyed your weekends, we know we did. Here’s a look at what happened around Chicago in a new series we’re calling, “This Weekend in Beer.” If you’d like to be the first to hear about these events, go ahead and subscribe to our email newsletter.
The highly anticipated KBS from Founders Brewing drops in Chicago this weekend and we’re here to give you the scoop on where and when to find it.
For the past few months, we’ve been hanging out with brewery owners, brewers, roasters, sales reps, and other beer industry folk, to give a behind-the-scenes look at REVved UP, the collaboration beer between Upland Brewing and Revolution Brewing. Today, in the final chapter of Behind The Beer, the guys from Upland are here in Chicago, helping Revolution with their coffee brown ale.

Looking at the 5-day forecast, it’s easy for us Midwesterners to get excited about a few days above 50 degrees—the possibility of another snow ever-looming. But this week—rain or shine, snow or sleet—there’s one thing we can all count on: Bell’s Oberon is here for another season.
Seen as the unofficial first day of spring by many, Oberon’s near cult following has created an infectious buzz around its annual March release date and customers go to great lengths to get their hands on the freshest glass possible. Its drinkability and approachability attract all types of beer drinkers and we were fortunate to sit down with David Munro, National Field Services Manager for Bell’s Brewery, to talk about Oberon and why it’s one of the most sought-after beers of the year.
For the past few months, we’ve been hanging out with brewery owners, brewers, roasters, sales reps, and other beer industry folk, to give a behind-the-scenes look at REVved UP, the collaboration beer between Upland Brewing and Revolution Brewing. Here’s where we are now: Upland will brew and bottle a blonde ale and Revolution will do the same with a brown ale. Both will use coffee from Chicago roasters, Dark Matter Coffee. Both will be called REVved UP. Today I’m in beautiful Bloomington, Indiana at Upland Brewing Company’s production brewery for the official REVved UP brew day.
