the ravenswood corridor and surrounding area is home to some of chicago’s best and most unique craft beer options. once a turn-of-the-century hub for industry, this stretch of road is now a mosaic of creative businesses and artisans intertwined into a uniquely resi-dential backdrop.
with a bevy of breweries (and a renowned distillery) planting their roots in the ravenswood corridor, it truly has become chicago’s malt row. count some of the accolades of these neighbors – ’no. 5 best new brewery’ by usa today [dovetail], ’first michelin-starred brewpub’ [band of bohemia], ’best new brewery 2013’ by chicago magazine [begyle brewing co.], ‘us micro whisky of the Year run-ner-up 2017’ by Jim murray’s whisky bible [Koval distillery] – it’s easy to see why spending a day wandering the corridor would be time well spent.
whether it’s dovetail for a crisp pint of lager, half acre for a juicy hop-centric iPa, or band of bohmeia for a beet-thyme ale, we’ll see you around the taprooms. cheers!
the greater ravenswood chamber of commerce is a non-profit membership organization whose mission is to empower local businesses through a proactive and inclusive approach to community issues. while just established in 2015, the greater ravenswood chamber is tied to a 57-year history of fostering a vibrant, locally-focused economy in ravenswood.

the first taproom to open along the historic ra-venswood industrial corridor, begyle has quickly become a neighborhood institution. whether it’s a weeknight skeeball league, sunday yoga session, brewery tour or a visit from local food trucks, there’s always something happening at this laid-back brewery.
launched in 2012 by a group of longtime friends from michigan, begyle offers chicago’s only community supported brewing (csb) program. similar to community supported agriculture, members receive a growler or two a month as a part of their membership, allowing the brewery to build a close relationship with their neighbors.

dovetail founders hagen and bill met in germany while earning their master brewer certifications from the siebel institute. bonding over their mutual interest in continental european beer styles, the two formed a friendship that has resulted in an excit-ing young brewery dedicated to old world brewing methods.
even seasoned beer geeks will enjoy their saturday tours, where visitors can get acquainted with unique equipment like open-top fermenters and chicago’s first coolship, a large, flat vessel that allows for the introduction of wild yeast and bacteria. be sure to ask about dovetail’s lauter grant, a 100 year old piece of antique brewing equipment that bill and hagen acquired from a farm outside of munich.

half acre launched in 2007 and the release of daisy cutter Pale ale in 2009 cemented their place in the landscape of chicago beer. their original location on lincoln ave includes a shop where visitors can sample beer or buy to go, before settiling into the taproom for a full pour and a wild burrito from their kitchen.
half acre also operates a second brewing facility in bowmanville, which in late 2017 will open a restaurant, taproom and beer garden.

Pairing food and beer is trendy. crafting unique beers that pair with specific dishes created by a team that honed their skills at restaurants like alinea and longman & eagle- that’s how you be-come the world’s first michelin rated brewpub.
located across from the ravenswood metra station, band of bohemia is a chic “culinary bre-whouse” that offers a range of cuisine including bar snacks, a tasting menu, full coffee service, wine, cocktails and lounge seating. their eclec-tic draft list rotates to complement a seasonally influenced menu. the only mainstay is band’s house beer, the noble raven ale, a delightfully crisp belgian golden ale showcasing yeast from bastogne and a healthy dose of tettnanger hops.

Koval is also known for its use of unique and interesting grains, inspir-ing wine enthusiast to name the distillery a “leader of the alt-grain scene.” all of Koval’s whiskies are single barrel and aged in new american oak. each bottle can be traced back to the field on which the grain was grown. all of Koval’s whiskey, gin, vodka, and liqueurs are certified organic and Kosher and made from grain to bottle in chicago.

most brewers have a bit of mad scientist in them, but few are as dedicated to experimentation as the crew at empirical. the brewery doubles as a laboratory where a 1-barrel system is dedicated to exploring news styles and recipes. after collect-ing feedback from taproom guests and making adjustments, some beers graduate to empirical’s 30-barrel production system for wider release.
tours allow guests to see both systems in action, as well as a chance to meet the famous feral cats that protect grains from pesky rodents. other tap-room activities include trivia tuesdays, themed karaoke nights and firkin fridays, where a unique beer is served in a cask at 4:30pm each week.

what started with a spiteful incident as kids playing hockey on the pond turned into a lifelong friendship for brad shaffer and Jason Klein. with a passion for beer and a desire to start their own business, spiteful launched in 2012 with g.f.Y. stout, setting the tone for the aggressive flavors and attitudes of spiteful’s beers.
after years of brewing out of a 400 sq. ft basement in the ravenswood corridor, spiteful is moving operations to bowmanville, where their production facility and taproom will be opening later in 2017. fresh cans of 6-Packs and 4-Packs can be found in local shops throughout the city.
