Apparently, one of my old hangouts is home to an organization called, Draught Beer Preservation Society, according to New City:
The Draught Beer Preservation Society is an open, Chicago-wide organization propagating the notion that, since the allure of tap beer draws us out of our homes and into each other's company, bars solidify a community. Critical Mass veteran John Greenfield leads this, the club's Ukrainian Village arm
from the Manifesto
Yak pobachu pyvo, ne proidu mymo.“I will not walk past a beer, when I see it near.”
The Ukrainian Village Draught Beer Preservation Society will work to support taverns in Chicago's Ukrainian Village community. There are 29 bars in the neighborhood, liberally defined as the area bounded by Division St., Ashland Ave., Grand Ave. and Western Ave. To pursue the goal of drinking in every bar in this (roughly) square mile, the Society will meet sporadically at various watering holes.
