QC Craft Beer Patios are What’s Tappening

I talked with Glenn Cole, Director of Operations, at Midwest Ale Works about patio season! As Iowa-based breweries continue to operate at a 50% capacity and Illinois-based breweries continue to operate outdoor-only service, Quad City area breweries have gotten creative. Some have extended patios into the parking lot and others have blocked off streets!

Many of the breweries in the QC have taken a hit, of course, so now would be a great time to support them and let's face it. You've earned a cold beer in the warm sun.

CBW is back open just in time for some patio beers and food truck season. You can regularly find food trucks set up in the parking lot or on the patio a few days a week, so you don't really ever have the excuse that you can't go grab a brew because you have to go get dinner. Take advantage of the spacious multi-level interior if the outdoors isn't your thing. The friendly servers will take care of you inside or out. Look for new beers to come from Crawford as they are really creative on keeping new taps flowing. They also create crafty cocktails and offer other spirits for everyone. Grab some brews and join in on virtual Yoga on the CBW facebook page Wednesdays as it's done live from the Mezzenine.
