Ravenswood’s “Malt Row”
Chicagoans like to drink. And yet, with the wide array of breweries and distilleries across the city and beyond, no concentrations of places to imbibe quite compares with the Ravenswood Corridor rebranded as “Malt Row.” With six breweries, including Spiteful Brewing, Empirical Brewery, Band of Bohemia, Half Acre (with its eye-popping 60,000-square-foot facility), Dovetail Brewery and Dovetail Brewing, you hardly need to throw in the nearby Koval Distillery to drive home the point.
