Revolution Brewing’s beer brewed with hops grown at Shedd Aquarium is now available at nine bars around Chicago, including the Whole Foods in Lincoln Park, which is holding a Penguin Hops tapping party tonight.<\/p>\n

The hops used in brewing Penguin Hops were first planted at Shedd Aquarium about five years as a way to spruce up the grounds. A Shedd employee, who’s also a homebrewer, happened across them and suggested they be used to brew a beer.<\/p>\n

Penguin Hops was first released a week-and-a-half ago at Revolution’s brewpub and tap room. And the brewery is giving back to the aquarium that provided the hops. $1 from each beer sold will be donated to Shedd.<\/p>\n

According to the Sun Times, you can also find Penguin Hops on tap at the following bars:<\/p>\n
