Lakeshore Beverage is proud to announce that we’ve entered into an agreement to acquire the Alcoholic Brand Rights of Central Beverage in Chicago. We’ve also entered into a joint venture agreement with Central Beverage to manage, sell and deliver their Non Alcoholic portfolio under our joint strategic direction.
We’re incredibly excited for this new chapter in our company and look forward to the opportunity to continue to bring Chicagoans world-class beverages! The full press release is below.
There are meals and then there are MEALS. Last night I sat down for a five course beer dinner prepared by Chef Stephanie Izard and her fantastic team. Each course was paired with a Founders beer, including the extremely rare CBS and an exclusive taste of the upcoming Blushing Monk.
If anything bad can be said about Chicagoans, it’s that we have a tendency to think of the city as the only worthwhile part of the Midwest. Beer Trips (Driveable Craft Beer Destinations) is a blog series about places that are just within our reach. These posts will put you in the passenger seat of Lakeshore Beverage’s blogger and beer traveler, Matt Tanaka as he journeys to nearby craft beer destinations to see what makes them worth the trip.
In the second installment of the series, we take you on a trip to lovely Bloomington, Indiana to visit Upland Brewing Co.
Last night we had the great privilege of officially welcoming Urban Chestnut Brewing to Chicago. In true Urban Chestnut fashion, there was plenty of tasty beer, a German-style feast and, of course, a punk polka band playing NOFX, Op Ivy and Brian Adams covers.
The event was also a part of our Secret Beer Party series, which meant that we got to party with a bunch of you guys! Thanks for joining us, we had a blast. Read More

After reading these guides, you should find yourself equipped to make the same journey… or at the very least with a whetted appetite for a fresh pint.
First up: Founders Brewing Co. in Grand Rapids, MI.
Last week we took you behind-the-scenes as Chef Chris Cosentino and the Virtue Cider team created a custom cider called Offalgood Cider. Now that the cider has officially been released, we sat down with Lakeshore Beverage craft beer and cider expert, Jenn Eppich for a closer look at the final product.
