  • Really good beer. I go to a new brewery a few times a month but this one is worth repeating! We tried 11 different beers and all of them were top notch.

  • Great new brewery in Des Plaines. It's located in an industrial area (natch). Easy parking and a great vibe once you enter. Outstanding! Highly recommended.

Fibs beers

If it's listed here... it's on tap!
8 Legged Octopus
Apple Ale
Crisp, clean, and bubbly. Illinois country apples harvested at peak freshness. Squeezed right into the fermenter to turn you into a giggling goose.    (8.8% abv)
Crowlers available to go
A Question of Madness
Imperial Ale
A smooth malt forward ale with a hint of smoldering toastiness. Slightly dry on the palate with a sweet finish. Yeah baby.    (7.9% abv)
Crowlers available to go
Break Oil
Pilsner
Clean, crisp, refreshing. Everyone needs a break. And this is the perfect beer to "lube up" after a hard day of yard work... or, after a hard day of watching someone else do your yard work. No judgement here. Also goes great with a lime.    (6.2% abv)
Crowlers available to go
Dead Goldfish
Pale Ale
A classic Illinois common. Like a cool summer breeze on a lazy Saturday afternoon. Easy drinkin with a pinch of hops.    (6.6% abv)
Crowlers available to go
Fib Cage
Kolsch
The perfect beer to enjoy on a warm summer day just chillin’ with your crew in the fib cage. Cool, refreshing, and dare I say revitalizing? Need an in-betweener? Try this textbook session beer.    (5.4% abv)
Crowlers available to go
Moe Cowbell
Midwest IPA
Hoppy, but not too hoppy. Earthy, but not too earthy… Pure Midwest IPA. Great nose with a complex taste and mouth feel. Uniquely mash hopped and double dry hopped! Yep. It’s about time the Midwest had an IPA to call its very own.    (7.3% abv)
Crowlers available to go
Ode to Francis Wuppermann
Belgian Tripel
A magnificent Belgian Ale. A caramel toffee flash followed by a floral and peppery finish. This is certainly one you’ll remember, well, at 9% you will love it, but you might not remember. Time to liquidate the witch!    (9% abv)
Crowlers available to go
OhMeOho
Double IPA
A double IPA, generously hopped, but with a focus on the nose. Perfectly balanced. This is a close as you’re going to get to drinking a flower infused with earthy sweetness.    (8.1% abv)
Crowlers available to go
Ol Nummer
Amber Ale
Classic smooth drinking Amber Ale. Malty sweetness made just like the good old days.    (7.3% abv)
Crowlers available to go
The Heretic
Gingerbread Ale
All kinds of spicy goodness in this one! It’ll remind you of granny's fresh baked gingerbread cookies! Full bodied and malt forward, but with a nice balance of cinnamon and ginger.    (7.6% abv)
Crowlers available to go
The Throw Down
Hazy Juicy IPA
Classic smooth drinking hazy east coast IPA with enough pineapple and grapefruit to make you long for lazy summer days on the beach. Sitting in the shade of course, cause the sun is just too flipping hot these days. Enjoy.    (7% abv)
Crowlers available to go
