If you get a chance try Three Floyds. Really great bear and decent food. It is just a short ride from Chicago.

+10000 the best two places they have got IMHO.

Check out Beer Bistro. Its on Madison about a mile from the United Center.

Check out a brick oven pizza place called Piece. They are a microbrewery, too, although they don't bottle anything (you can buy a growler though). The beer is amazing and the pizza is just as good. Plus, it's in a great neighborhood w/ lots of other places to get a good beer after dinner. Try the Bluebird - I haven't been bust it's supposed to have a killer beer list and good food, too.

Ditto on Hopleaf and Map Room.

Also look at :

Kuma's Corner - heavy metal gourmet hamburger joint that is always PACKED
Delilah's - punker place w/ huge Belgian selection and lots of other good beers (and Whiskey)
Quencher's- not really around anything, but free popcorn and pretty chill w/ great beer selection
