It was a gorgeous Spring day in Chicago, and it was a Friday. So, my wife took a much-needed hour and headed over to our local brewery for a drink and some food. Our local brewer is Dryhop Chicago in Lakeview East. They are known as much for their food as they are for their beers, and that is not to say that their beer isn't quite good. The beer selection does tend to skew heavily towards what the beer nerds may enjoy, but there is always something for those looking for something a little less nuanced. I had the Hazy Shade of Hipster, which is a derivative of their wildly popular Shark Meets Hipster. Hazy Shade is brewed with Citra and Galaxy hops, which are two really fantastic key words to look for when reading a beer list. This wheat beer was citrus-y, bitter (it's an IPA, after all), and a little sour/dry. I still prefer the original Shark Meets Hipster, but Hazy Shade of Hipster was a great beer to drink on a warm Friday afternoon. My wife has the Ursus Mapletimus, which was a smoky maple flavored beer, where a portion of the proceeds go to support our local free zoo and it's polar bear. I only really dislike two things in my beer, and one of them is smoke (the other is spicy heat). My wife said she liked this beer, but I did not care for it. But that's probably just me. For food, we had the mussles and an order of the fries, which come with a garlic aoli and a gochujang ketchup. Mussles and fries are my wife's and my favorite combination. I don't know why mussles and fries shops aren't a thing. Afterwards, my wife went back home to work some more, and I went to pick up the girls from daycare. Then, we hit the swings at the park on the way home. A great way to end the week. Thanks for watching.
