We drink up three beers from each brewery as a way to show appreciation to their contributions to Illinois craft beer - and for making all those weird styles that helped us plan many a podcast episode. In addition to sharing some nostalgia to help us reckon with these huge losses, we also talk about why the roller rink is so dangerous; we briefly join the Lace Gang; and Craig's looking for lactose and cosplaying a milkman. Cheers to over a decade of great beers courtesy of the fine folks at Miskatonic and Alarmist - your beers (and taprooms) will be sincerely missed. Miskatonic Brewing - Vox Pilsner (German-Style Pilsner) Miskatonic Brewing - West Coast Wizard (West Coast-Style IPA) Miskatonic Brewing - Goblin Couch (Smoked Porter) Alarmist Brewing - Crispy Boy (German-Style Pilsner) Alarmist Brewing - Le Jus (Hazy IPA) Alarmist Brewing (w/ Old Irving Brewing) - Runemaster (Bourbon Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout)","meta_description":"The painful reality of 2026 craft beer is seeing great breweries make the decision to close, and this episode is a tribute to two of those that we admired…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":6053,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/abv-chicago-craft-beer-podcast-201068/episodes/episode-628-a-goodbye-toast/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/abv-chicago-craft-beer-podcast-201068/episode-628-a-goodbye-toast.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
