This is one of my favorites out of Chicago. They opened their doors in 2010 and since grown to the 40th largest craft brewery in America. They are a Ratebeer.com best taproom in Illinois winner and many medals for everything from there classics like Anti-Hero to limited barrel aged beers.
Drink Pink! For all of October a portion of their pink Anti-Hero six-packs and Anti-Hero draft sales will be donated to the Karen Wellington Foundation. So grab a six pack or growler fill of this beer and help support women battling breast cancer!

Featured Beers:
Bottom Up Wit: A traditional Belgian-style witbier. A great upgrade and alternative to that Blue Moon… Lightly spiced with a touch of freshly ground coriander and brewed with Curacao orange peels to give it a wonderful citrus aroma. Nice crisp and clean finish. 5.0%ABV/23IBU
Anti-Hero IPA: The flagship IPA released by these guys. It is a great everyday drink. A nice blend of Citra, Crystal, Centennial, and Chinook hops. Nice and clean with a balance of floral and citrus aromas. 6.7%ABV/65IBU
Tropic-Hero IPA: Heavily loaded with a blend of Apollo, Warrior, Crystal, Cascade and Amarillo throughout the brew and then dry-hopped with Mosaic, Citra, Crystal and Sabro. Huge burst of tropical fruit in this surprisingly easy drinking brew. 7.0%ABV/70IBU
Coffee Eugene: *Limited Release* “Our Robust Porter was sent to a bright tank and aged for an additional week with whole bean coffee from Dark Matter Coffee. The cold-aging allows us to extract the aromatic oils from the coffee without extracting any additional bitterness that it may impart if we were to have added it to the near boiling wort in the kettle.” 6.8%ABV/28IBU
