Area Code for Chicago, Please?

You don’t have to go to a liquor superstore and raid the dusty shelves for an obscure microbrew to become a connoisseur of fine beers. Sometimes you need only try a new bottle form a trusted line you know and love. Chicagoans are already well aware of the magical Goose Island, where everyone chugs from bottomless mugs, your every fantasy comes true, and hangovers are never invited to the after-party. Let’s take a trip back there, shall we?

WEEK 4:

312 Urban Wheat
312 Beer
Yeah, yeah, we featured a different Goose Island brew last week, but there is a method to our madness. We love Chicago, we love beer, and we really want work at Goose Island someday in some sort of taste-tester capacity. So we’re putting in a good word. Besides that, they tend to stock beers of the same brand together in liquor store, and we didn’t get very far down the line before the cart was full. It’s only week four—we’ve got a whole year of this ahead.

Anyway, 312 is a wheat beer with an ABV of 4.2% that goes down as easy as any light beer, but with a hell of a lot more flavor. A creamy body and a citrus notes, it’s a favorite of summer drinkers, but available to quench your thirst all year long. For you out-of-towners, it’s a beer that says summertime in Chicago and let's face it, a trip to the liquor store is a lot more reasonable than a flight to the Windy City in this or any economy. Retailing around $13 for a 12-pack, it’s as kind to your wallet as it is to your palate. Cheers!
