We are dedicated  to the art of crafting and quaffing fine beers through
 the sharing of ideas and experiences, the advocacy of brewing as a hobby and the responsible consumption of beverages containing alcohol

BOSS is a club of home brewing hobbyists.
Our meetings are held on the first Friday of each month in club member's homes or at local brewpubs around the Southwest Chicago Suburbs.
We have members from Joliet to Crown Point, from Hyde Park to Kankakee.

February Meeting

For the fifth year in a row, BOSS will have its February meeting hosted by the great folks at Goose Island Brewing, 1800 West Fulton, Chicago. Once again, we thank Dave Persenaire for arranging and confirming the meeting. Most attendees will be travelling on the bus leaving from Tinley Park. At the request of Goose Island, this is a members only meeting.
