History of Goose Island Brewery (gooseisland.com):
When the first Goose Island Brewpub opened its doors in 1988,
domestic, mass-produced beer was deeply ingrained in Midwestern culture. The
craft beer industry was still in its infancy, with only a handful of brewpubs in
existence in the Midwest. In his travels across Europe, beer-lover John Hall had
enjoyed a distinctive local brew in each region he visited. Hall was convinced
that Midwesterners could produce beers as good or better than those he’d tasted
in his travels. Living on the shore of the largest system of fresh water on the
planet Earth, in a city with rapidly evolving tastes – John decided that his
hometown, Chicago, would be the ideal place to do just that.
The key to building interest in craft beer, Hall decided, was
to allow consumers to watch the brewing process – while providing them with the
then-novel experience of enjoying a wide variety of distinctive beers that had
been produced on-site. Hall wanted to not only cater to his customers’ tastes,
but to challenge them as well. Goose Island’s brewers set to work crafting a
diverse selection of unique beers – and on Friday, May 13, 1988 Goose Island
Brewpub was born.
"We believe the more great beer consumers drink, the more they'll come to
appreciate quality taste and after a while, they will demand it."
- John Hall,
Founder of the Goose Island Brewery
