Took the Bucktown & Wicker Park Beer tour with Bruce as our tour guide. He was funny and very knowledgeable about both beer and Chicago history. We were surprised to be treated to a Chicago-style hotdog at one stop and some lovely chicken pot pie at another. We'll try the Lincoln Park & Lakeview tour the next time we visit... More

We took a tour at Wrigley and looked for something to do in the area, and boy was this a home run! The beer was great, the bacon was awsome and Jen, the tour guide was full of energy and information. If you love beer, a little history and a good time, this is a must!

After arriving in Chicago with my wife for a weeks holiday this was a great way to get over jet lag, meet some fun people and learn about American beers. The guide was very knowledgable, the pubs and beers were great. The location was find and we would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Chicago who likes good beer.

The other reviews give a sense of what you experience, 5 bars, a great host in Jen, good beer. We went with myself, my girlfriend, my brother and his girlfriend. We met a couple from Canada on the tour. I will just give one warning; it is imperative to eat before this tour, especially the females. The ABV of the... More

We came up from Texas to see a friend & catch a game @ Wrigley. He recommended this tour. It was great. The young woman that hosted was amazing. She was charismatic, engaging, good story teller, & had some really interesting facts regarding Chicago. Each bar was it's own experience. From the bar where they serve different types of bacon...
