What’s brewing in Chicago? The Public Square presents a lively conversation on the politics of beer—past and present. Join us to take a look back in Chicago’s history as the beer capital of the world, then fast forward to the rise of microbreweries today.

Featured guest speakers are Elizabeth Garibay, public program manager at the Chicago History Museum and founder of the Tales, Taverns & Towns web project, and Pete Crowley, owner of Haymarket Pub and Brewery and president of the Illinois Craft Brewers Guild.
