OK, so I have some bias because this place brewed my favorite beer type, which few people do. I really like Kolsch, which is a light German ale. Few brew it. Piece did so and did it well. So it is now my favorite Chicago area brewpub mostly because it did my favorite beer well.

Of additional interest were their other beers. One was heavily hopped to point that the hop aroma was over-powering. But as a hop head, I liked that. I don't think I would want more than one though unless mixed with food. The aroma was quite strong, even though the taste was more of a normal to heavily hopped pale or amber ale. The descriptions are funny too. They tend to say that certain brews are both heavy on malt and hops. Well, that is not too helpful if you want to pick between a maltier taste or hoppier one. I suggest asking for samples, which they were happy to give to us.

We did not try the food, but I saw some go by and it looked good. The place is quite affordable and has a more bar like relaxed atmosphere.

Finally, my coords look to be a bit north of where it is when I see it on the map. It is not hard to find though. Look for a sign that looks like piece symbol, but as a pizza cutout!
