GABF week is one of the biggest celebrations of beer all year – and you know we don’t do things halfway. From barrel-aged releases to surprise tappings and hangover curing tacos, this is your inside guide to everything happening at River North during Great American Beer Festival week.
We’ve built our name on bold, barrel aged beers and this week, we’re cracking open some of our best. Every day brings something new: fresh releases, special events, and a handful of rare pours that almost never leave the taproom.
The Lineup: GABF Week at River North
Our award-winning Imperial Coffee Porter brewed with Logan House Coffee is back on draft and in bottles to go at both taprooms. Plus, a limited-edition Nightmare Fuel merch drop available at both locations.
Join Euchre Night at 7PM and grab bites from Chicago Beef & Sausage Food Truck over in RiNo.
