The Wrigleyville location, while nicely located if you are headed to a game, is not really as beer centered as the original location on Clybourn Ave. The Brewery itself on West Fulton Street is an industrial brewery that is not really open for tours unless you have connections. I've tried all the beers on the list except for the Cadillac Mountain Stout and they are all solid beers. I would place the Bourbon County, World Wide Stout and Old Rasputin as my favorites on this particular list.

I'm not even sure where to go next time I'm in or around Chicago, since the <a href="http://beermapping.com/maps/chicagobeer.html" rel="nofollow">Chicago Beer Map</a> lists three different Goose Island sites.

I don't remember the Bourbon County Stout, however. Having lived in Chicago, including dining at a Goose Island Brew Pub, I can vouch for the quality of the Oatmeal Stout.
