Ahhh...the Taproom. Perhaps the best beer experience around. Big shiny things, welcoming staff, chill atmosphere, and fresh cold beer to drink. We all know how great our local breweries are at making beer, but did you know that many of these breweries have awesome Taprooms that you can visit and experience?

To pay tribute to the Taproom experience, this year’s Bitter Pops Advent Calendar will be featuring Taproom Only beers! This means that you will be able to try the beers that never make it to the broader marketplace, but rather are served only in the brewery’s Taproom and its visitors. We will also be taking a peek at each participating brewery’s Taproom so that you can virtually visit these cool places and/or plan a trip to go see each Taproom yourself!

Sooo...What is the Bitter Pops Advent Calendar?

When we were kids the anticipation of Christmas started in December with the advent calendar. It was always fun to have a daily treat to look forward to and occasionally even sneak ahead a day or two as we countdown to Christmas.

Bitter Pops Advent Calendar features 24 tasty Taproom craft beers to help you, and whoever you wish to share with, celebrate the Holidays. While the calendar is designed to be enjoyed starting Dec. 1, you can decide whether to follow the one-beer-per-day cadence or you can choose to give advent calendars as gifts throughout the holidays, share them at small office gatherings, or enjoy sips with friends.

Guests can purchase theirs online or by visiting Bitter Pops, 3345 N. Lincoln Ave., in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood. Advent Calendar pickups will begin the first week of November.

For Bitter Pops Rewards Members, that means each box comes with rewards of 3 poker chips! Not a Bitter Pops Rewards Member?, click here and sign up today!

The Advent Calendar is the go-to gift for the beer lover in your life and of course the perfect treat for yourself during the Holiday Season! Availability is limited so act now and order yours in the Shoppe or online today!
