Hi Everyone,

I am opening registration for the X-Cart Beer Meeting 2014 at

Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery
1 W Grand Ave
Chicago, IL 60654

Thursday, June 12, 2014 from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM (CDT)



There is $15 registration fee to avoid "out of curiosity" registrations that can prevent real goers from attending the event due to running out of space (yes, it is limited).

But I don't drink beer

Me either, I can't have it unless it's "special" beer. We'll just drink Disarono or something else together.

Here's some feedback on location from a Chicago resident:

McCormick is located a little south of the loop, but all the good bars are north of the loop. There are probably some places around there that are good, but I'm just not too familiar with them. If you are in the loop or River North area though, some good places would be:

- Tavern at the Park (Technically a restaurant but they really cater to the business crowd over tourists so the atmosphere is perfect for meetings. Definitely need a reservation.)
- Rooftop bar at the Dana Hotel (So many of the bars are loud, but if you go for a loungy rooftop you're more likely to be able to have a conversation. This place would be great for the evening too)
- Rock Bottom (This is more of a sports bar type place, young folks and locals, way more casual. It has a nice rooftop as well, but the game will be on so I don't know if that would distract anyone in the conversation.

This is definitely a very good idea.

Thank you, Jon.

These two seem to be a very good alternative to the Bedford bar

I am contacting both venues regarding our options. Thank you once again for your help!
