Best Local Brewery
Goose Island
Other nominees: Flossmoor Station, Half Acre, Piece, Rock Bottom, Three Floyds, Two Brothers
Getting bigger has only made Goose better. Though such stalwarts as rich, malty Honkers and hoppy India Pale Ale are as ubiquitous as Bud and Miller on local taps, the Hall family has avoided diluting the quality of their pours. Smaller-volume brews, such as their Belgian abbey–style Pere Jacques and funky-smelling Matilda, compete head-to-head with ales from Belgian breweries. At the brewpub level, creativity and one-off batches still reign alongside some of the best brewpub eats around, including the stinky, gut-busting Stilton burger and the flaky battered walleye fish and chips. 1800 N Clybourn Ave, 312-915-0071; 3535 N Clark St, 773-832-9040.

Same comment as another article. 20 pages (or more) shows total disrespect for site visitors. I was about to recommend this site to some discussion groups I am on but it is not going to happen now.
What are you folks thinking?

Naha is so expensive! I went there and could not believe how expensive both the food and wine were!
