CHICAGO, IL
The Hop Review’s 2018
Readers’ Choice Chicago Brewery Bracket
The first four rounds saw over 250,000 votes across the four regions, with some notable upsets across the board. And just as a reminder on numbers: North, South, West and Suburbs were seeded 1–16, and not-so-scientifically-based on production, reputation, years of operation, and recent growth. The last two years have seen champions come from some of the least expected breweries; will this year produce another Cinderella story or will one of the top seeds finally raise a banner in our friendly–yet competitive–Readers’ Choice competition?
PLEASE HEAD HERE FOR THE ‘FINAL 4’
& TO VOTE FOR YOUR CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND.
See below for previous rounds’ results for each region.
