Smylie Brothers Brewery Coming to Evanston, IL

Another new brewery coming to Illinois…..today it’s Smylie Brothers…details from Wilmette Patch:

It’s a new day in Evanston—once a dry community and the national headquarters of the temperance movement—where a gin distillery is up and running, a bar devoted to craft beers just opened downtown and what could be the city’s first brewery is slated to open at 1615 Oak Ave. this summer.

Owner Michael Smylie, who grew up in Winnetka and graduated from New Trier High School in 1995, will be opening the Smylie Bros. Restaurant and Brewery in August or September. The Brewery will serve a variety of craft beers brewed in house, as well as barbecue and wood-fired pizza, among other offerings.
