Beer Under Glass, the signature festival and fundraiser that kicks off Illinois Craft Beer Week (#ICBW), returns Friday, May 13! And this year, we’re taking BUG to new heights – literally – with a new twist on the classic event. Hosted where the State of Illinois meets the City of Chicago – under the glass at Chicago Union Station – Beer Under Glass will celebrate the collaborations, partnerships, and connections that define the Illinois craft beer industry and the brewers, suppliers and supporters who are instrumental to our community. This one-of-a-kind evening of craft beer pairs samples from more than 110 Illinois craft breweries with the history and architectural marvel of the iconic venue. Guests will go on a statewide exploration, mingling with brewers from their favorite craft beer spots as they sample timeless favorites and discover new treasures. A VIP ticket option is available and features a one-hour early entry to the festival. Active ImBIBE members receive a complimentary VIP ticket upgrade with their general admission purchase. Food from iconic Chicago venues will be available for purchase throughout Union Station. When you kick off Illinois Craft Beer Week at Beer Under Glass, you are supporting one of the Illinois Craft Brewers Guild’s largest annual fundraisers, helping us fulfill our mission to promote, educate, and advocate on behalf of Illinois craft breweries. And that alone is a reason to celebrate. For more information, including FAQ visit: illinoisbeer.org/bug
