The first drops of Guinness draft to ever be poured for a civilian at the new Chicago brewery happened today and they went to my dad who, at 90, will question your very existence if you claim any other beverage is greater than. Thanks for the oh so special treat, Guinness!

Folks, can confirm this was an impersonator. He called the bar today to apologize for the tomfoolery which fooled us all!
But has been fun to read how much people seem to know about Bono’s physical attributes, his schedule, likes/dislikes, diet, astrological chart. Sheesh.

Fake Bono is a guy named Pavel Sfera who was nice enough to just contact me to personally apologize and also tell me about himself, which I appreciate.
He’s in town for a Serbian film festival which featured a doc about him. So, fake Bono is sort of famous too 😂.

In an effort to support the USPS and Chicago breweries, I’m going to offer to play beer fairy. Message me a beer you’d like to try, include your address, and I’ll send it your way.
P.S. A few of you already have packages on their way!

I probably shouldn’t be tweeting this but the Mayor of Chicago is sitting in the row behind me at the Cubs game buying her row mates beer and passing them down said row. And damn straight SHE is drinking a beer too. I’ve never been more proud of our Mayor.

Lol to all the negative comments on my photo by people whom I’ve never met. It truly speaks volumes about what is wrong with our society and those who ignorantly make assumptions about other people based on one photo.

Met an older gentleman at the bar tonight. He gave me his card. After he gave me his card, he said, “it’s easier to hand this to the bartender than explain what I want.”
I’m a little in love right now.

One of my favorite taverns in the whole world,
@TwinAnchorsBBQ
, turns 90 this month. It holds a double special place in my heart as it’s located a couple of corners away from where I grew up and it’s also the first bar I ever researched 23 years ago, starting it all.

Sitting at the bar at Twin Anchors drinking beer and shoveling down ribs alongside a dozen others doing the same AND bitching about the Cubs is probably one of the most genuine Chicago things I have ever experienced.

As we’re sitting in this weird ass, “what day is it?” time, I remind you of While You Were Sleeping, one of the best Christmas movies out there. A solid romcom and a timeless classic with the Sun-Times building in the background leaving you with a dem were da days feeling.

Any time I post about my dad it’s about his obsession with

It’s utterly baffling to me how this many people are voting for this idiotic and incompetent jagoff. We’ve had four years of nonsense, a total disregard for basic human rights and a complete disrespect for the highest office in our country. Yet here we are, nail fucking biting.

Sometimes I think it’s nuts that my best friend is an 82 year old white guy. But then I remember he’s a living history book. A bar owning raconteur whose made me laugh for 20 years. Tonight he shared a story about a fight when he was a young 60. Bruce Elliott is gold.

A couple of years ago I had an idea to create a conference that was a mashup of an academic, museum, and beer industry conference and something that would also be interesting to people not in those fields. The common denominator was, of course, beer because beer belongs to all.

There’s no way a brand that has had so much overwhelming account support and city-wide consumer loyalty could possibly fuck up all the free marketing they gotten to grow as much as they’ve had in the last few years. No way.
Jeppson’s Malort: Hold My Beer.
You dipshits stole one specific bar’s ideas. Twice. And sold them for outrageous prices while hiding behind the guise of doing it for charity. When said bar is known for hosting hundreds of charity bartending events themselves. And you cannot say their name.

Proud to be an American born to hard working immigrants who raised me to be a decent human and taught me to love Cubs baseball. Living the American dream because of them. Our amazing country was founded by immigrants, so let’s raise a glass to them. And baseball. And beer.
