Saturday's the day in Ravenswood as Dovetail Brewery officially opens to the public. Tomorrow's events commence at 11 a.m. with a ribbon cutting, as a few food trucks —including Cookout On Wheels— will stop by to commemorate opening day.

It's a 22,000-square-foot facility that includes a taproom. That's where they'll pour Dovetail's German-style lager, Bavarian-style Hefeweizen and a Franconian-style Rauchbier. They're working on a lambic, but drinkers will have to wait until spring of 2018 for those releases.

The taproom has space for 99 people over 1,700 square-feet. It's also available for private events. Take a look around in the photos below.

Dovetail Brewery, 1800 W. Belle Plaine, (773) 683-1414, open daily 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.
