The Old Chicago "World Beer Tour" - Page 2

**Saulbadguy** · 08-17-2006, 02:23 PM

I started the WBT in November, and my, this has truly been an adventure. For those who don't know what the World Beer Tour is, it is a rewards program for..well..drinking beer. Here is how it works:

1. Sign up for a WBT Card
2. Enter all personal information
3. Drink beer! Every beer you drink gets recorded on the card. You must drink a DIFFERENT beer each time to get credit for it.

I have reached 105 beers. 5 more, and I will have completed the World Beer Tour, and have my name emblazoned on the "Hall of Foam", a plaque in the store. Throughout the tour, I have earned other rewards, such as a deck of cards, a compass, a cooler, a hat, and many t-shirts from the various "Mini-Tours" (Cinco De Mayo, St Patricks day, etc).

Here are some of the best beers i've tried:

Here are some of the WORST beers i've had:

And of course, Corona, Heineken, and all that shit. I managed to avoid Bud/Bud light.

I still have 5 more to go. Any suggestions, that they may have? I'm thinking Tsingtao (haven't had an asian beer yet), some sort of Samuel Smith product, or an Italian beer (can't remember their names).

C'mon you girl. It's ON the list.

It's not that bad, really. Not very warm.

I take it you don't like warm things. Not temperature wise.

**Rausch** · 08-17-2006, 03:25 PM

Those people ****ing suck.

They only allow 6 beers a night to count. **** that. I could finish Europe on a sunday...

**Baby Lee** · 08-17-2006, 03:33 PM

They got Lambics on the list?

Nummy!!

teedubya · 08-17-2006, 03:35 PM

Yeah Smithwicks is a great beer... I had my first one compliments of Phobia.

Hey Saul, I once tried some chili flavored pepper with a pepper inside the bottle at Old Chicago. Made my stomach burn for hours. Do you remember this or have you tried it yet?

Ah, didn't even see you post this. If you are trying to take it easy and not get sloshed, this is definetly the beer to go with. I imagine a 6er would give you the shitz for a week.

I'm 1 away from finishing Tour #2. I know, shameless bump to toot my own horn, but dammit, i've accomplished something grand!

Here are some of the fine ales and lagers that have made up the best of the 2nd:

Peroni is really good.

**Dartgod** · 10-12-2007, 09:50 AM

Bridgeport brews some damn fine beer.

kcfan82 · 10-12-2007, 05:40 PM

I just finished mine 2 months ago, the prizes along the way are better than the sweatshirt they give you as a final prize.

Well I need to go back to Olathe to see if they put my name on the plaque yet.

Also when I finished, the waiter brought my wife and I a bottle of oak barrell aged Chimnay free of charge, now THAT is some good beer.
