Aperitivo

Embrace the Untraditional

Unafraid to embrace the untraditional, Chicagoans have developed a love affair with food and drink that goes above and beyond traditional fare. Our city’s thriving culinary culture is a constant source of inspiration in everything we do and the reason that we can continue to push the boundaries of what can be done in the world of beer.

Whether enjoyed before or after a meal, Goose Island Aperitivo Stout is beautifully complex and delightfully piquant. Inspired by the bittersweet Italian liquor Amaro, we aged our decadent imperial stout in bourbon barrels for a year and then infused it with a blend of 13 different botanicals. Every sip reveals different layers of citrus zest, baking spice & lush evergreen.
