"Whiner is inside a massive Back Of The Yards warehouse-research facility called The Plant. And while we’re not exactly sure what type of research goes on here, we support it because Whiner’s beers are fantastic. They focus on barrel-aged brews with a variety of funky beers ranging from mango coconut stout to lime and cucumber ale. And make sure to check out their resident pop-up Heffer BBQ, which happens to have one of our favorite burgers. Their industrial taproom makes you ask “Is that really a crack in the ceiling or is that an artistic choice?” But there’s plenty of room here, so it’s perfect for post-work hangs or a birthday." - josh barnett, adrian kane, john ringor
"Breweries are great places to escape TVs, and Whiner in Back of the Yards, inside the Plant, provides exactly that." - Ashok Selvam
"This taproom has a wide variety of beer, much of which is now available at 50% off if you pick it up. So, it’s like that two-for-one bar you used to visit in college, only now you can legally drink, and you’ll be doing it exclusively at home." - adrian kane

"Whiner Beer broke into the mainstream with Le Tub, which it proclaimed the first beer designed for drinking while in a bathtub. What happens in the privacy of a drinker’s own home isn’t up for discussion, but in public, Whiner is known for its barrel-age brews, and it’s not just about the stouts. Find fruit beers, sours, and more." - Ashok Selvam
