I fully support small locals by visiting and enjoying their taprooms.
Recently during my first visit to Chicago I knowingly visited "Goose Island" taproom. Yes, I know they're an InBev owned product. Yet, I knew I was going to get some of the best dark beer options.
I barely scratched the surface of the bottle options.
Despite the very rich parent company, I'm glad I had the chance to drink this bad boy:
Tusk and Feather, barleywine. I have very few 5.0 rated beers. This is my latest.
Edit: Ooopps, I lied. I had a 5.0 a week ago.
