"Debuting in 2012 with a 20,00-square-foot facility in the suburb, Solemn Oath Naperville makes beer and includes a taproom and was among the state’s first brewery taprooms. Its lineup includes “Kidnapped by Vikings” (an American IPA) and “Punk Rock For Rich Kids” (a Belgian IPA), and it has won awards at the Festival of Wood and Barrel Aged Beers for brews like “Limousine of the Damned” and “Ultramegahighfrequency.” That experience with state liquor licensing is part of the reason Barley expects the licensing process for the Logan Square facility to go smoothly." - Ashok Selvam
