12. Yep, I could get to Prairie Rock |
|
I would be happy to pick up any Wheaton area people who may need a ride if it ends up we meet there.
I can't remember the last time I went to a bar for a beer, any kind of beer, so I don't have any firsthand knowledge but I know there are some great Irish places - one in St. Charles and another in Glen Ellyn. I'm going to guess they don't serve budlight in a place like that.....

Once Mopinko sets the date and time we'll make arrangements. I too have always wanted to go to one, but they never worked into my schedule. This one (I hope) will finally be it!

20. where is lunar brewing? |
|
that would work for me. i was hoping the ground was soft enough to plant signs. although i think i will bring an ice pick and a hammer, just in case. but, yeah, i was planning to be out that way.

22. hubby the beer critic says 'don't miss it' |
|
so, i am there. trying to get him out there, too. it's on his 'must do' list, so maybe he will come along. he doesn't do politics, much, but he does do beer.
