The Chicago Chapter of Barley's Angels is teaming up with Glutenberg Beers to host a night of entirely gluten-free drinks and bites at Compass Bar this evening. Obviously Glutenberg beers will be the spotlight, since their own Simon Leblanc will be there walking attendees through a tasting and talking about all things gluten-free beer including why they aren't just for those living a gluten-free lifestyle, but there will be other gluten-free breweries available as well. To complete the evening, enjoy three types of gluten-free pizza with your beer, a five cheese, pesto and asparagus, and an Italian option.
