Can, from Broadway Dive Bar, Manhattan NYC (Aug 2025). Poured cloudy lemon yellow with a foamy off-white head, citrus-mango aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter sharp mango-vanilla taste with citrus peel, and lactose, thin body, long finish. The vanilla-lactose combination is too dominant. I did not like the result at all.

Guinness Open Gate Brewery Chicago

7.8/10 — Setting 9 Selection 7 Service 8 Food 8 Value 7 Overall 8

Visited in October 2025. Huge structure on an empty lot in a residential area. They had 12 beers brewed here, 4 beers brewed in Ireland and 2 guest beers on tap. British sty;e pub food menu, central round bar, very high ceiling, huge beer garden outside. Great location for parties I presume. Both the food and the beers were good.

Very small brewpub and pizza house across the train station at Berwyn. They had 8 beers on tap and an enticing food menu. Black woodtop bar on one side, around 10 resturant style tables on the other side. The beers are average.
