Whether you’re in search of a quick post-work brew or a frosty game-day draft, Chicago is home to some of America’s most beloved beers. 

Goose Island 312: When it comes to a Chicago beer, nothing quite mesmerizes the palette like a tall, cool glass Goose Island 312.  Densely packed with flavor, this Urban Wheat Ale begins with a spicy aroma and is followed by a fruity ale flavor.  Compliment this Chicago favorite with a gourmet twist on another city staple, a char-grilled sausage flatbread.

Half Acre Over Ale: This dark malt brew is toasty and lightly caramelized giving off a nutty yet pleasant aroma.  It hits the spot with its six varieties of malted barley, balanced with its three generous hop additions.  This strong-bodied beer is best served with spicy pork belly tacos topped with a medley of manchego, cabbage and cilantro.  Add some fire roasted salsa for the perfect balance of sweet and spice.

Argus Pegasus IPA: The playful aroma of this golden brew will captivate your taste buds with fruity and floral flavors mixed harmoniously into a tall frosted glass.  Match this malt beer with a tailgate favorite, mini angus sliders.  For an added treat, include cheese and caramelized onions to complete this classic meal.
