Do you love craft beer?

Do you want to know about all the craft brewing news from around the Midwest over the last week? (Everything that we think might be kinda important, anyways?)

Then you need to sign up for the GDB weekly craft beer and brewing news email! It comes to you once a week, full on fresh stories from around Chicagoland, plus a bunch of other places around the Great Lakes as well.

We’ll send you our craft beer news email every Monday, bringing you the news you might have missed from the preceding seven days. Basically all the beer news we think you need to know.

We’ll send you what we’ve written about that week, along with Chicago-based news stories, our favorite new label of the week, along with news from Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio and Wisconsin — even Missouri and Iowa gets into the fun.

Did someone sell their brewery for a billion dollars? Did a brewery add something new to their taproom or close a location? We’ll tell you about it. Want to know what beers might be coming out soon? We’ll send you the best new beer label of the week that we’ve spotted from an Illinois brewery.

Want to know what’s opened and what’s closed around Chicagoland? We’ll send you regular updates on changes and additions to our Chicagoland Craft Beer map.

We even include random social media updates from brewers and breweries that we catch throughout the week, mostly because we’re on the internet all damn day. (BTW you should also follow us on Instagram and Twitter for breaking news too.)

Why? Well, someone has to keep track of this stuff, right?

We won’t sell or spread your personal info around, because that’s not cool at all. Also, we promise not to bug you too much. We get a ton of emails too. We know you don’t need extra stupid ones in your inbox. Maybe we’ll send you some big breaking news from time to time. That sort of thing.

…and so on. You’ll see. It’s rad. Sign up now for our brewing news email now:
