Wow! What a selection!...and beers bursting with scrupulously combined hops! This place has a steady flow of patrons and the sit down table service for beer ordering was a new twist for us! Keep it up Hop Butcher For The World! Loved the wood plank walls!

I found a beer in my Dad's fridge from them called the ' Green Moss ' and it absolutely blew my socks off. Working in the beer industry and finding a gemstone like this beer is so cool. Citra and simcoe hops blend so well together. Fresh Citrus, Stone Fruit, and light pine. 10/10

Great Beers & Outstanding staff! Hop Butcher makes incredible beers. They have a deep IPA line up with westys and neipas. Single to Triple. A few lighter pilsners and lagers. Plus a dark stout or two. I tried about 12 4oz pours and everything was premium. The last one was a triple IPA and probably my favorite. Sylvia was my beertender and was SUPERB. Friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Nick the manager was a hoot! A happier man you will not find. Enthusiasm & Joy overflowing. Tap room is cool. Cement bar, wood tables and benches. Two different areas plus a take out room. Many many cans to go + merch.

I first heard about Hop Butcher For The World when they released an honorary brew for famed meteorologist Tom Skilling - that was a darn good beer! My lovely wife and I finally stopped into Hop Butcher on a weeknight for a drink before attending a show in the area. Our server was kind to us even though we were one and done, and even served us a full pitcher of water. I enjoyed my tangy Cherry Cyclone milkshake IPA, while my love enjoyed her IPA pour. We'd love to come back here with friends.

Love this place! I have been here twice since Hop Butcher took over from Half Acre and both times were a good experience. Love their beers! If you're into IPA, this place is a must. Friendly service, friendly tap room, good atmosphere, very clean. Would return, would recommend. Long live the Butcher!

I happened to be in the area, so I was happy to check out the tap room. If you love ipas, then hop butcher is definitely worth your visit. On the day of my visit, they didn't have many other options. My husband ended up trying a milkshake ipa that he actually liked. What is super awesome is that they offer multiple sizes of their pours. Inside is a little cramped, but service is friendly.

Silvia was the BEST today. Knowledgeable, friendly and chill. We loved our short visit to this yummy brewery today. Easy street parking. Multiple seating options. Friendly staff. And delicious beer. We sampled Kielbasa King and The Last of Summer. IPAs were fresh, flavorful, and reasonably priced. Took cans to go. We'll be back!

There is no doubt that Hop Butcher is one of, if not the most exciting craft beer joint in Chicago. Their selection is ever changing and never boring. They know what they're doing and they do it better than everybody. Their marketing deserves recognition but unlike quite a few other trendy craft beer makers, it is what's inside the can that makes the product so special. Much love for Hop Butcher and all that they do to bring good beer into our pint glasses.

An awesome brewery putting out some top notch beers that I started to experience a few years ago. Great that they now have a location and any beer enthusiast or connoisseur needs to have this on their places to stop. Great staff as well and a nice kick back spot right there off the main street area. Highly recommend, and decent locations around if you need to get food as well.

Been a longtime fan of the brewery since moving to Chicago and learning about them in 2017. A team of really good people, along with an expert artist, working together to put out arguably the best hazies in the midwest. I'll start with the beer. If you're a hazy IPA fan, you've hit the jackpot - tons of great offerings. Missed the Thursday can drop? No problem, their latest releases are usually available on draft for at least a week. An assortment of size options at a better-than-the-competition price point. They've also begun really trying to dial in their non-hazy offerings, some solid pilsners and west coast styles, as well as a burgeoning barrel-aged program which, in its infancy, is producing some very good stuff. Their taproom was a longtime coming, finally opening at the end of 2022. There are a few touches of Dan Grzeca's art on the walls, otherwise, if you squint, you might think you're still at the old Half Acre taproom, which occupied this space for the better part of a decade. And, despite the friendly, knowledgable, and fast service, that is one of my biggest issues with the space. There simply isn't any atmosphere, nothing to really make you feel like you're in a special place, or Hop Butcher's home. I appreciate the nod of respect to Half Acre, but this feels more like a pop up in their home, rather than its own thing. Lower the lighting, perhaps, a few more flourishes. It can get very loud with only a handful of people in there, and lately it has rarely been packed, which I can only imagine speaks to the lack of an overall experience. They've recently taken a step in the right direction by opening up "The Oasis," essentially the garage in between the bottle shop and the taproom. They did a nice job with this, and is the kind of unique feel you want when you visit a place as acclaimed as they are for their beer. I feel like with a more exciting space and experience, I would be here all the time. As it is, the beer is too good and it is in such a convenient location that I still find myself here once or twice a month.
