A party of 10 of us were in town for some NFL Football the next day. We saw this trip and thought it would be a fun way to spend some time in Chicago. We had an absolute blast, visited three brewery's/brew pubs tasted plenty of beer and had a really good time. Highly recommended!

Fun time. Great staff on the bus, good variation in the breweries we visited, and interesting stories told along the way. The bus could have better suspensions, but that did not ruin the experience.
