Whenever it is a nice sunny pleasant day, Frank and I do a lot of walking. So much so that we were both tired from this weekend. We walked to Half Acre on Saturday then checked out this coffee and tea shop and made our way over to Lakeview.
It's Chicagoland's Craft Beer Week so there are a lot of happenings that Frank wants to check out. This weekend we went to Metropolitan's Brew Tour. They are a local brewery in Andersonville specializing in german lagers. So if you like german lagers, you will most likely appreciated Metropolitan's beers. I surprisingly liked the Arc Welder which is a seasonal beer made during this time of year. Metropolitan runs an operation team of 6 people. They emphasize "fresh" in their beers, which is commendable. Typically, Metropolitan Brewing doesn't have any public brewery tour, but since it was craft beer week, we got to check out their space and their beers.

Living out here, there are so many craft breweries that Frank would dare admit that "he gets tired of drinking..." We are fortunate to be so close to the sources and taste the freshness and local releases on tap.
