Hello Friends,

I’ll be in Chicago for a wedding this weekend and have Friday afternoon/evening free. Looking for a place that has both outdoor seating and flight/sampler sized pours available.

Strangely, I’m hard pressed to think of many places where "outside" and small pours/flights commonly intertwine in the city.

I can think of several places with great outside areas.

I can think of several places with great/numerous options for ticking a large amount of beers in small pours/brewer’s flights


But both together leaves me a bit.. well.. flummoxed

Haymarket?

Good places to tick are relatively easy to find in the places database, so I guess my preference would lean towards places with awesome outdoor areas.

Oh, they do have 4-5 tables out front.

Solid call.

outdoors include Kaiser Tiger, Sheffields, Clark Street Alehouse.

Anyone else?

I think DryHop also has some outside tables in front much in the same way Haymarket does. As do most places in Wicker Park on Division (Jerrys, Bangers & Lace)

Kaiser Tiger does variable pour sizes. Rock Bottom has the roof downtown. A better option is just to sit at Parsons all day drinking whatever they have on tap & negroni slushes. Or Publican, which has a solid number of tables outside.

Green lady has big open windows, not fully outdoor but feels like it. They have samplers though.

Went to all rise last weekend, looks like they have a bunch of outdoor seating and I did order a flight - I think it’s walking distance to kaiser tiger.

Stopped at mad mouse brewing also, got a flight and they had outdoor seating with pretty good BBQ.
