The Skinny:  This is a mega statewide Tap Takeover next week.  Don't miss your chance to taste some of the finest food in Connecticut and some of the finest craft beer that the Windy City has to offer.  Goose Island Beer Company of Chicago, Illinois will be invading CT and specifically all four current Plan B locations.  They will be taking over the taps of Plan B Glastonbury next Monday, Plan B Milford and Plan B Simsbury next Wednesday and Plan B West Hartford next Thursday.

Goose Island Beer Company will be commandeering 5 of the taps at each location and offering up some of their savory brews for just $5 each!  On tap will be:


Honker's Ale
Chicago's authentic craft beer since 1988. Inspired by visits to English country pubs, Honker's Ale combines a spicy hop aroma with a rich malt middle to create a perfectly balanced beer. Immensely drinkable, Honker's Ale is not only a beer that drinkers can trust, but one they'll look forward to. 
Hop Bitterness (IBU): 30 
Color: Sunset
Malt: 2 Row, Caramel, Wheat, Roasted BarleyHops 

Styrian GoldingIndia Pale Ale
A hop lover's dream. The British who colonized India were an adventurous lot, but English ales didn't fare well on long journeys. Brewers began to use more hops to preserve their beers. Goose Island has crafted its own version of this classic pale ale featuring an inviting spicy hop aroma and fruity flavor, set off by a dry malt middle that ensures that the long hop finish won't soon be forgotten. Hop Bitterness (IBU) 55
Color: Bourbon
Malt: Special PaleHops: Styrian Golding, Cascade, Centennial 

312 Urban Wheat Ale
Experience densely populated flavor. 312's hazy appearance lets you know that it's unfiltered ale. Its spicy aroma of Cascade hops is followed by a crisp, fruity ale flavor that's delivered in a smooth, creamy body. 312 is not like any other beer we brew at Goose Island, but it's certainly no less than you'd expect. 
Hop Bitterness (IBU): 18
Color: Hazy Straw
Malt: 2 Row, Torrified Wheat
Hops: Liberty, Cascade, First Gold Sophie

Belgian Style Farmhouse Ale. Fermented with wild yeasts and aged in wine barrels with orange peel, Sophie is a tart, dry, sparkling ale. A subtle, spicy white pepper note, a hint of citrus from the orange peel and a creamy vanilla finish make Sophie an intriguing choice for Champagne drinkers and beer drinkers who are fond of Belgian Saisons. 
Hop Bitterness (IBU) 20
Color: Champagne
Malt: Pilsner, Wheat
Hops: Amarillo 

Matilda
Belgian Style Pale Ale. Wild in character, with a slightly fruity aroma and spicy yeast flavor that is as unique as it is satisfying - Matilda is an intriguing choice for beer and wine lovers alike. Dry and quenching, it's the perfect accompaniment at the dining table or for casual socialization at the bar. 
Hop Bitterness (IBU): 26
Color: Golden Sunrise
Malt: 2 Row, Caramel 40
Hops: Styrian Golding, Saaz
