Oerbier, on draft!

Posted at 7:19 pm by Patrick under Beer Photos, Beer Travel

We’re at the Map Room in Chicago enjoying a few draft beers, including Poperings Hommel bier and Hop Rye Red from California. This Oerbier has made the trip from Belgium in great shape, and has been well-cared for here as well.

Sam’s domestic beer aisle

Posted at 10:01 am by Patrick under Beer Photos, Beer Travel

Sam’s is a *huge* beverage warehouse near downtown Chicago. The beer selection is quite good, and if you need some non-malt beverage choices the wine selection is also quite deep. Their cheese counter (yes, that’s right), also had Chimay’s beer cheese and Garrett Oliver’s favorite match for a JW Lee’s — Humboldt Fog.

Among the additions for my luggage: Hair of the Dog (3 varieities), 2 varieites of Victory (V12 and their 2003 Grand Cru), and a few random double IPAs.
