I started to post this last night on the way back to the hotel, but we got caught in that crazy storm in Chicago. By the time we finally got back to the hotel, we were all ready to go to bed. So here is the review I started last night.
We just had a great dinner at Goose Island. They still have one of the best buffalo chicken sandwiches around. I tried both the Summer Bitter and the Ellie’s Celebration Red. The Summer Bitter had a great malty sweetness and was good. My favorite was the Ellie’s Red. It had a very similar malt characteristic to the bitter, but had a nice cascade hops nose and taste. It was excellent. The food was all good, as was the service. I’ll update this later with the address.
Edit: This review is of the 1800 North Clybourn, Chicago, IL Goose Island Brewpub.

I haven’t been there in a while, but Goose Island’s a nice place. I can (and do) get the Honkers and 312 in the sixth barrel for the kegerator but am running out of new things to try. Anyone know of a good contact for these small kegs? I’m going through Joe at Joe’s Wine and Spirits currently and have pretty much had everything he carries in a keg.
