Plus, we have a plan for tomorrow, at least sort of.

We are meeting somewhere to be determined soon at 11:30 for brunch and then going to them zoo or something else that will let us enjoy the weather and then sushi at 5:30.

Shrift or Tommyrot, Would you be able to join us for some or all of that?

Eta: We even have a place for brunch! [link]

I am in.

It was a lovely evening, but I hate the Red Line a little right now.

Hooray for brunch tomorrow.

I think we may spin off after brunch to check out Sheffields and then Hopleaf instead of the zoo. Folks are welcome to join us, but as we know we are beer nerds to a crazy extent, I imagine people might like to take in non-beer sights.

I love the term beer nerd! It opens up a whole world of nerdy possibilities.

So jealous of your mini F2F, sounds like a great time.

It really does!

We had a wonderful brunch with Brenda, Lee, Aurelia, and shrift. I am so blisses out about the food, BEER, and of course Buffistas. Lee, Aurelia, and shrift went to the zoo. We are at an amazing beer bar because we won't be able to beer it up once we're hanging with the 18 year old. But we'll be sightseeing tomorrow with niece, Lee, and perhaps others!

Oh Chicago I love you.

What beer bar, Nora?

If you're doing the tall building thing may I recommend the bar on the 95th floor of the ...whatever they're calling the Hancock building these days? IMO it has a better view than the ...Willis? (formerly known as Sears) tower and it's a BAR.
