I’d strongly recommend and encourage -first time visitors to Chicago in particular - to join the Barrel Bus tour as it winds its way through the streets stopping off at several locations and sample several interesting beers along the way. First of all - no kids; adults only (yay!) and second of all; there will likely be people from around both the USA but also the world. People of different ages and backgrounds; an eclectic mix. My host was Dave who regaled us with a few interesting stories as well as safely driving us from location to location. And the music in the bud was first rate. Tour lasts about 4 hours (traffic pending) and was worth the ticket price. The only drawback was…well, too short. Could have easily enjoyed one more brewery. Thanks guys for a great Saturday afternoon!

Fun and easy way to see some breweries around Chicago. Great beer selection options and plenty of time at each brewery. Never felt rushed. Transportation was nice seating and comfortable. Driver was great and very knowledgeable.
