## What it's known for

Chicago's cult hazy-IPA brewery, which took over Half Acre's old Lincoln Avenue brewhouse and opened its taproom here in 2022. Expect a long board of double IPAs canned within days (several canned this week), plus pilsners and the odd lager, and a to-go store that draws people in from the suburbs. Open 11am to 10pm Tuesday to Thursday, 11am to 11pm Friday and Saturday and 11am to 7pm Sunday; the store closes two hours earlier (one hour on Sunday). Closed Monday.

A short walk from the Montrose Brown Line stop and a few blocks west of the Ravenswood strip, so it's a small detour off Malt Row itself.

Check opening hours with the venue before you go: they change, especially early in the week.
