  • DNIL Summer Bash @ Crust Brewing!

    MBAA DNIL 2023 Summer Blast!

    Join your brewing industry friends at Crust Brewing in Rosemont for this second annual get-together of the Illinois brewing community. Located just outside of O’Hare airport, Crust is easily reached by car or by the Blue Line, with the Rosemont stop just minutes from the venue.

    The afternoon will kick off with brewing-related presentations from recognized industry experts, and then the fun begins! Happy Hour kicks off around 5:00, and you are in for a treat with amazing pizza from the kitchen of Crust served alongside the fantastic ales and lager brewed by the legendary Rob Hunter, Brewmaster at Crust and District Board of Governors Representative for MBAA DNIL. Brewery tours will be available, and attendees to the event are encouraged to bring beer from their own brewery to share with others.

    While the event “officially” closes down at 7:00pm, the fun doesn’t stop there. Right outside the front door of Crust Brewing is the Parkway Bank Park Entertainment District, and this night promises to be a blast! The “Rockin’ in the Park” event brings live music to this great outdoor concert venue, with a Bee Gees tribute band and a 60’s “garage rock” band on the stage in front of up to 2,500 guests. The restaurants and bars surrounding the concert area will feature their most popular menu items and adult beverages, and dancing will be encouraged!

    Finally, so you can relax and enjoy the night’s events, special rates have been arranged with Aloft Hotel just a stone’s throw away from the concert. Wake up on Saturday morning in Rosemont, and enjoy brunch or go shopping at the luxury outlet mall right across the street from the hotel. Make it a weekend getaway that will be the highlight of the summer!
