THE HISTORY OF BEER IN CHICAGO
Thomas Jefferson once said, “Beer, if drank with moderation, softens the
temper, cheers the spirit and promotes health” and his fellow founding father
Benjamin Franklin saw beer as “proof that God loves us and want us to be happy.”
And indeed, beer has become in many ways the quintessential American beverage.
After tonight’s 6:05 p.m. Cubs game, we will discuss the history and art of
brewing in and around Chicago with a panel of guests, including BOB SKILNIK,
author of the new book
 BEER:
A History of Brewing in Chicago.
