Enjoy rooftop views, local brews and live radio broadcasts select nights this summer at the BMO Rooftop. Located north of the Dining Pavilion and above the Ravinia Music Box, the BMO Rooftop boasts the best panoramic views of the entire Ravinia Lawn as well as live video from the Pavilion stage – with both bar seating and a drink rail around the perimeter of the space.
This year, we’re thrilled to be showcasing three local breweries: ERIS Brewery and Cider House, Funkytown Brewery, and Moor’s Brewing Co. Please stop by to meet the brewers and enjoy a few of their offerings.
ERIS BREWERY AND CIDER HOUSE
Strawbarbarella: Strawberry rhubarb hard cider
Pedestrian: Modern dry cider blended for everyone. Crisp, fresh, and pleasantly tart like a glass of Granny Smith.
FUNKYTOWN BREWERY
Hip-Hops and R&Brew: American pale ale that started it all. Smooth and mellow with notes of citrus orange, fresh strawberry, and lychee.
Gym Shoe Weather: Belgian pale ale that features notes of stone fruit, rye bread, candied date, and a mild Belgian ground pepper finish. A perfect, medium-bodied day-drinker that any #sneakerhead will love.
MOOR’S BREWING
Session Ale: Packs a light but flavorful balance of green papaya and a hint of key lime with a smooth lemongrass finish.
Imperial Porter: Rich, textured beer with a hoppy nose complemented by the scent of lavender and blueberry. The palate brings home the flavors of roasted chocolate and ground coffee.
