text: I was pleasantly surprised with Chicago Brewing.  Not sure why, but for some reason I wasn't expecting much.  We sat in the bar area and ordered a sampler of all the beers, 9 total.  They were all actually pretty good!  I liked that they had all different types, everything from Wheat beers to IPA's.  Some were better than others but they were all good.  We each ordered a glass of our favorite and had a plate of garlic knots, which were also good.  The service was fast and friendly and I noticed they had an upstairs area along with the bar and main restaurant.  The food menu had lots of choices and they also have a full bar in case you don't like beer.
