About Midwest Coast Brewing Company
Midwest Coast Brewing Company is a family and dog-friendly taproom in West Town, Chicago. The founders moved from California and wanted beer that suits both a coastal lifestyle and a hardworking Midwestern city.
The core lineup runs from West Town Brown, an American brown ale, to Volkslager, a German pilsner. It also pours Vaguely Stylish, a West Coast IPA, and Harbor Gold, a golden ale. The brewery says English Sporting Beer won a bronze medal at the 2020 GABF.
The taproom has a second floor and an all-season rooftop. You can bring your own food, and snacks are available on site. Local food spots partner with the taproom on weekends.
