A Revolution Brewing Bar is Coming to a Chicago Ballpark

— Sox Park, perhaps already the leader in craft beer selection at baseball stadiums, will add a bar from an iconic local brewery this season. The Revolution Brewing #SoxSocial Tap Room will open in a former private event space along the left field line and offer an array of unique beers including a rotating selection of the brewery’s “Hero” IPAs, a barrel-aged imperial oatmeal stout, and more, the Tribune reports. Revolution will also have an expanded presence elsewhere throughout the ballpark and the stadium will also offer Pipeworks, Off Color, and other acclaimed local breweries this year. The Sox’s hope opener is April 5 against the Detroit Tigers.

The NYC spots Passon & Passon owns include Aria, Cotenna, and Terra. Lauras Grigaliunas, one of Lago Wine Bar’s owners, told Law360 that they had a verbal agreement.
