The brewmasters behind Lake Effect Brewing, like many in the craft brewing scene in Chicago, came from different professional backgrounds that didn't involve beer. Turns out, their professional backgrounds in architecture, urban planning and finance became assets as it helped them set up and build one of Chicago's newest breweries on the northwest side. Lovers of hops (they are growing several varieties on-site for future beer), visitors can enjoy Wit Bier, pale ales and stouts in regular rotation as well as specialty or seasonal varieties. Saturday afternoon tours include a tour inside brewery with the brewmaster, bottling area and outside grounds and tasting of beers.
