Chicago magazine's September Issue: For the Love of Beer
Your guide to the local craft beer boom
CHICAGO, Aug. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Beer lovers, rejoice! The craft beer business is booming in Chicago and Chicago magazine's September issue cover story, For the Love of Beer, provides the expert guide to the local scene. The region is now home to more than 60 craft brewers—spanning from Lake Bluff to Lake View to Lansing—and they're pumping out barrels in numbers that rival the city's output during Prohibition. Chicago assembled a panel of experts to weigh in on the 62 best local brews, with winners from each style—pale ales, IPAs, lagers, stouts, and more. Plus: A profile of Tony Magee, founder of Lagunitas Brewing Company—one of the largest, fastest-growing specialty beverage makers in the U.S.—who hopes to upend the beer industry with his massive new facility in Chicago.
