Chicago, IL Chapter

Chicago boasts one of the greatest brewing histories and modern craft beer scenes in the country. From historic neighborhood taverns to cutting-edge craft breweries, our chapter celebrates everything that makes drinking beer in the Windy City special.

We are a community built on camaraderie, good conversation, and great pours. Whether we are tracking down a heavy barrel-aged stout, introducing a newcomer to the classic Chicago Malört handshake, or simply kicking back to watch the game, there is a seat at our table for you.

Our chapter meets regularly at local breweries and pubs across the Chicago and suburban areas. If you enjoy discovering new local brews and connecting with great people, we want you in our ranks.
