We’ll have to coordinate group service appointments (and beverage stops) for those of us from the western burbs.

Seriously when I have my R1S I’d love to meet up at the center and have a beer and compare stories.

Well if we are all at the western suburbs...we can meet for a beer somewhere closer and hope our vehicles do not need service :) Maybe during the car show at Q Bar off the I-55 or Down town DG car show.

Chuck's is my go to. So many craft beers. Strangely I've never been in Q bar.

They also do a car show by Cozzis Corner on 75th and Lemont in DG.

I was there yesterday :) For local brews, I go to Miskatonic which is right down the road from Chuck's. Q Bar isn't a...reputable establishment lol But they have pool tables!

Ha I got takeout at 5pm yesterday.

I'm a fan of the heavier beers (stouts/porters/scotch ales) and I haven't seen many from Miskatonic. They had one a long time ago but it was very hoppy, tasted more like an IPA.

Chuck's has been carrying hop butcher a lot, and they have some really good ones.

Sucks that the nitro tap is stuck with Guinness because of St. Patrick's day.

Guinness is the lightest beer/lager I drink, so my choices are usually very limited as is, but Miskatonic sometimes produce a good dark beer ( forgot the name ). However, I heavily dislike hoppy beers and ones with a flowery after taste.

Chuck’s is great, and Miskatonic is only a two minute drive away. They currently have an 11.5% Tiramisu Imperial Stout, a 9.2% Dopplebock, and a 5.3% Nut Brown on tap for those who prefer dark(er) beers. Hopefully Driver+ will be working after that stout…

Ha so we are all together. Chuck's is about a 4 min drive for me. Sadly i drive right by the Darien PD, maybe rivian can scan Plainfield for me and add it to driver+ lol!
