Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for the brewery bus tour?

A: Yes, you have to be 21 or older to participate in the Chicago Craft Brewery Barrel Bus Tour since it involves beer tasting. Just be sure to bring a valid ID, as they check. It's a great experience for anyone who enjoys craft beer, but definitely not for underage folks!

Q: What should I wear for the brewery tour? Is it casual?

A: Casual is definitely the way to go! Most people wear jeans and a t-shirt. You might want to check the weather beforehand since you’ll be outside at some breweries, so layers are a good idea in case it gets chilly. Comfortable shoes are a must since you'll be walking around!

Q: Can you reschedule if something comes up?

A: Yes, you can reschedule the tour, but it's best to do it at least 48 hours in advance. Just reach out to The Barrel Run directly to handle it. They’re pretty flexible, which is a plus!

Thinking about the Chicago Brewery Barrel Bus - any tips?

I’m considering getting the Chicago Craft Brewery Barrel Bus Tour for my boyfriend's birthday. He loves craft beer! What should I expect? Is it worth it? Any recommendations on which breweries they visit? I'm kinda clueless about this stuff!

Just did the Barrel Bus Tour - What a blast!

I went on the Chicago Craft Brewery Barrel Bus Tour last weekend and it was awesome! We visited three different breweries, including one that had some crazy IPAs. The barrel bus is super fun, too! Just be careful not to overdo it on the samples. Can't wait to go again!
