Crushed By Giants is located in Downtown Chicago, two blocks north east of Grand metro station on the Red Line. One takes an escalator one floor up from the entrance to find this spacious brewpub and restaurant.
For this writer’s taste, the Bier was not great, too traditional. The overdosing with hops to create full on milkshake NEIPAs does not appear to have arrived here in 2024.
