C'mon.
Old Chicago sucks ass.
115 beers, 85 of them are variants of the same old light lagers, but ooh,
there's one from China!
The rest are very commonly available things like Samuel Smiths, Sierra
Nevada, Anchor, etc. Not to say those beers are slouches, but when you go
into a real beer bar, you often find yourself gasping at seeing a few
things on tap that you've only read about, and never thought you'd get to
drink.
Not to at Old Chicago. (not to mention their ice cold servings and frosty
mugs)
