Spiteful Brewing and Half Acre

Well, this is a little embarrassing and a first for us. When we got done with the Open House Chicago visits on Saturday we figured we'd find a brewery we've never been to and stop in for one beer, continuing our local brewery tour. Andy found Half Acre and plugged it into his GPS since we had no idea where we were going. The GPS told us we had arrived and we walked east, having just passed a bar. Andy, who was really tired from doing donuts, didn't notice until he was ordering that we weren't at Half Acre. I obviously wasn't paying any attention either. We walked into the wrong bar.
We were at Spiteful Brewing, but it was a good mistake because that Oktoberfest beer was so smooth.
Such a cute patio. We sat inside, but at a bar by an open overhead garage door.
The brewery had lots of plants. Someone there has a green thumb. Since we knew we were close to Half Acre, and that was our intended destination, we put that in Andy's map and soon realized that had we walked west when we got out of the car ...
we would have walked into Half Acre. The bars were literally feet from each other, on the same block.
Inside the bar.
We sat on the patio. It had rained that morning so some seats were still wet. Most people were inside but it was such a nice day and we won't have many more of those this season.
Cheers!
