One of the largest independently owned and operated craft brewer in the Chicagoland area is also one of the oldest. Founded by two brothers (hence the name), Jim and Jason Ebel used their time as expats in Europe to their advantage. Years later, Jason would design the original brewery around the traditional 3-vessel brewhouses of Germany. Today, thousands of people enjoy their popular year-round offerings including Domaine DuPage French Country Ale, Ebel's Weiss and Bitter End Pale Ale. Their Prairie Path Ale has been crafted to remove gluten. It also offers seasonal beers. Free tours are given every Saturday and Sunday and no reservations are needed.
