Chicago Craft Beer Week Events at Smylie Brothers Brewing Company

Smylie Brothers Brewing Company celebrates Chicago Craft Beer Week with an Evanston Tap Takeover, a "Brothers Brunch", and much more.

Smylie Brothers Brewing Company announces its schedule for Chicago Craft Beer Week 2015. This is the brewpub’s first official participation in Craft Beer Week as Smylie Brothers opened after last year’s event.

At the brewpub, Smylie Brothers will co-host the special “Brothers Brunch,” a collaboration with Warrenville’s Two Brothers Brewing Company on Sunday, May 17. Smylie Brothers will also host an Evanston Tap Takeover all day on May 21. The event will feature beer from Smylie Brothers Brewing Co, Temperance Beer Company, Peckish Pig, and Sketchbook Brewing Company. Brewers from all of the breweries will be there to talk about their product throughout the day. Smylie Brothers will also feature its own brews during Craft Beer Week with discounted pricing on specific days and a punch card program where patrons can earn a free pint glass with a full punch card.
