The bar that was the genesis for us naming Lincoln Avenue Chicago’s Best Drinking Street is doing its best to live up to lofty expectations.
The Barrelhouse Flat, 2624 N Lincoln Ave, is tapping not one but TWO kegs of Goose Island’s Bourbon County Brand Stout tonight along with kegs of Big John and Night Stalker.
Here’s the official tap list for the rather unofficial event:
- 2011 Bourbon County Stout
- 2012 Bourbon County Stout
- 2011 Big John
- 2012 Night Stalker
There’s no special tapping for any of the above. No real hoopla. Just show up and drink.

Awesome! I am a huge fan of Bourbon County Stout – probably because I really like whiskey as well. Can’t wait to get my hands on some more. I actually just wrote a quick review of this beer, feel free to check it out if ya want! http://alcohobby.com/2013/01/real-estate-must-be-spendy/
