GuysDrinkingBeer has learned from multiple independent sources that Finch’s Beer Company<\/strong>\u00a0is set to\u00a0acquire Albany Park’s BreakRoom Brewery,<\/strong> and transform\u00a0it\u00a0into a taproom as well as using it as a second brewing facility.<\/p>\n The news that BreakRoom was done broke on Eater on Friday. While we were confirming the news that Finch’s was to be the new partner,\u00a0the brewpub’s social media team began posting on Instagram\u00a0about the new project, which appears to be working under the new name of Finch’s Kitchen.<\/strong><\/p>\n [Update: The below instagram posts were removed by the owners.]<\/em><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BFMWIm9tooO\/<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BFMWr60toqC\/<\/p>\n As we understand it, the majority of Finch’s production will remain at their facility on Elston Avenue, while\u00a0the BreakRoom space will be used for smaller\u00a0batches of experimental beers from Finch’s collective group of brewers, which they call the “Brewers of the Round Table.” The new taproom will\u00a0continue to serve food as well, though we haven’t confirmed that the space will continue as a brewpub (which would allow for guest handles) or as a Finch’s-only taproom.<\/p>\n
