Belt’s Beer Garden: What’s on Tap

Related Topics: Chicago metropolitan area, Lyons

Sadly, I could only get one beer reviewed this week and it comes from BuckleDown Brewing.

BuckleDown was founded early in 2013 by two friends in the Chicago suburb of Lyons, Illinois. They still have a smaller distribution - throughout the Chicagoland area and a few spots outside - but finding them outside of Illinois is pretty hard to do.

Today I have one of their newer releases – Luv Tap. This pale ale was brewed with cryo-Laurel, Meridian, and Cashmere hops and is sold in six-packs that cost the usual $10. Each of the cans has a moderate 5.
