Spiteful Brewing

Top choice in Chicago


Spiteful's taproom has a rock-and-roll, DIY vibe. Two home brewers launched the brand, and they now operate out of a renovated garage. The concrete floored, exposed-ductwork place has a long bar where you can belly up for hard-hitting pale ales, IPAs and double IPAs.

On warm days the garage doors retract, and locals pile in to drink and play darts. All beers are available in 5oz pours, so you can sample widely.
