The property
An active brewery barrel-aging facility converted into an event space, featuring the vast barrel house of Goose Island Beer Company with a main event room and cellar tasting room.
The venue showcases a rustic industrial aesthetic with thousands of bourbon barrels stacked floor to ceiling, exposed brick walls with arched doorways, heavy timber elements, industrial steel accents, and walnut tables paired with burnished steel chairs.
Warm ambient lighting throughout creates an intimate atmosphere within the cavernous barrel-aging space.
The setting
The dramatic visual backdrop is the barrel-aging facility itself, with walls of stacked bourbon barrels creating a one-of-a-kind industrial and artisanal setting.
