At Forbidden Root Chicago, we brew craft beer inspired by nature. We love barley, water, hops, and yeast, and use those as a base to explore a rich world of wild ingredients. Our restaurant and brewery offer fresh, seasonal dishes to highlight our craft beers and elevate your overall experience.

We’re proud to be the craft brewery pouring at this year’s Do Division Street Fest. 🍻
To celebrate, we teamed up with our friends at the West Town Chamber to brew a beer worthy of the neighborhood.
Introducing our festival collab: an XPA featuring Citra and BRU-1 🌿🍊
Bright, refreshing, and loaded with citrus and tropical character, it’s built for sunny days, good music, and wandering Division Street with a beer in hand.
Find us at Do Division all weekend long. See you out there.

Say Ahoj! to Žatec, our Czech style amber lager🍺
This malt‑forward, amber lager has notes of toasted bread, light caramel, and subtle sweetness, countered by classic Saaz spice, earthiness, and a crisp finish.
⬇️Food Pairings⬇️
-If you’re in West Town, stop in and pair Žatec with our warm soft pretzel served with smoked cheddar pub cheese & honey mustard 🥨
-Up in Ravenswood? Swing over to and pair a pint of this with the Potted Smoked Short rib served with brioche, membrillo, aged brick cheese, and pickled mustard seeds 🍽️
See you this weekend!
Cheers to the unofficial start of summer!
Both pubs are pouring all weekend long. Come kick back with a beer, soak up the holiday vibes, and celebrate with us &
Open regular hours at both locations all weekend. ☀️
