So welcome to another Weekend Wrap

To many tourists, a trip to Chicago isn't complete without a quick run by the historic Wrigley Field. Wrigleyville has always been well known for its vibrant social scene, but its welcoming craft beer to the party has made it an even more popular area.

With our headquarters in Washington DC and the bulk of our correspondents found near America's top producing craft beer regions on the coasts, it only makes sense for us to start a new series giving all the states their due, featuring breweries large and small, plus the histories behind them.

ACB covers craft beer news, entertainment and lifestyle 24/7, and we'd like to think we do a decent job. But there's a lot of great craft beer journalism out there - and were constantly running into articles that we wished that we'd written. 

So welcome to another ACB Newswire - recent articles that we've enjoyed - and thought you might as well.

Yikes it's March already... and clearly nothing is slowing down anytime soon. But no worries, Rumor Mill is always on the case, keeping you plugged in to all the craft beer news that matters.

What to do when the kids want Chinese, and all you want is a burger and a serious craft beer? Well there's good news because now there's a place in Downtown Los Angeles, that serves amazing local craft beer paired with brilliant Pan-Asian food. And it's closer than the name Far Bar suggests, right down in LA's historic Little Tokyo.

Hey, no one's perfect, as we at American Craft Beer understand that better than anyone. That said, there are some ideas out there that are so monumentally bad and so misguided as to boggle the mind, allowing us to proclaim, "at least we didn't come up with that!"

So welcome to the latest in our ongoing series - BAD IDEAS IN BREWING... and we're blaming the Italians for this one.
