Leave the kids with Grandma and Papa and come to Chicago for the Windy City Brewhaha, a celebration of beer March 7, and stay at the nearby and affordable Chicago Lake Shore Hotel!

Beer: “A fermented alcoholic beverage brewed typically from malt and hops.”

Come learn about the history and future of craft beer! Don’t learn anything and sample 15 3-ounce pours in 3 hours! Find out why Columbus couldn’t have made his voyage without beer and why the Pilgrims sang the praises of beer! You know that bland beer you keep in the fridge?
