Where you headed? And where you been?!
Wanna make a wager on this series? I'll take the Kings straight up. I got a couple growlers from Tired Hands and some homebrew...or anything else you might want from the Philly market...for some NEBCO. I'm good for it (even though I won't end up owing you **** after LA hoists another cup), and we can PM our personal info. What do ya say?
Headed to Chicago. Still in Houston.

Drive a couple hours and head over here for a drunken day!
Just got back from the bottle shop and having Griffin Claws new offering, Platinum Blonde. Very solid and almost to easy to pound down.
If I was taking the trip alone, I would definitely be down for a drunken day in MI. But, with the family with me, I'll have to settle for a few drunken days in Chicago.

Edit: I just reread your post and now I'm assuming the question "where you been?" was in reference to me not posting with the other alchies here for a few days. I've been putting in some long days of work so I can take the time off for this trip. I squeezed a week of work into three days. I'm completely worn out and exhausted, but I'm able to take the trip and my little girl is so excited for her first time riding an airplane.

DDH 90 Minute. Looking at my science experiment. Is this enough slurry to make a 1L - 1.5L starter with?
Sent from here, because that's where I am.

End of my TH IPA growler, pulling for the kings. The kings are half ex-flyers and, well, flocc the Rangers.
Crazy game

I'm going to be a total tourist here...maybe you've been to Chicago many times. I've been once. I went during the Taste of Chicago in 2011...I found that a little disappointing. And, unlike NYC and some other big cities, there didn't seem to be much nightlife. As a hotdog lover though, I had some great options...a couple I just didn't make it to, but had a few good ones.
One thing that was definitely on my list though, was to eat at Rick Bayless' little casual restaurant, "XOCO" (pronounced "show-coe"). I just looked up their website and was surprised that they have an interesting Beer list of bottles, cans and bombers...not cheap, but then, what restaurant is? The menu of food is very reasonable for the quality, though. I had a Torta Ahogada and loved it. The Conchinita Pibil sounds excellent, too. They also make churros with chocolate drink...and the chocolate is make from bean to chocolate in-store. Locals can chime in, but whose daughter wouldn't like to see churros and chocolate being made?! Have fun and don't miss The Ledge at the Willis Tower! http://www.rickbayless.com/restaurants/xoco/
Currently, I'm drinking the hb pale ale that I didn't get to last night.
I've been to one of Bayless' restaurants and he is the man. They also carry one or two GI exclusives, which are really good.
i gave you a bottle of mine and it was bottled from the keg so drink it! I wondered if you did because remember, it wasn't all the way full because I had issues?I wasn't into good beer then, like I am now...probably a good thing! saved money! Watched Bayless' cooking shows on TV for years. His daughter Lainie actually sat right next to us and chatted with a family that she knew for a good 15 minutes. She was kind of goofy on the show, but seemed very smart and professional in-person...and prettier too! Anyway, good time.
Going to grab a hb IPA and call it a night! I brewed same time as Hello and she had issues with hers. I hope she pulls off a win, somehow! Mine is very crisp and bitter...I wouldn't mind a touch of malt sweetness. It's probably a technical win for mine...I'm still learning the styles. The IPA, DIPA and Imperials and barleywines are still on my horizon...just starting to come into focus.
