Goose Island opens Salt Shed Pub (Episode 948)

Car Con Carne

I visited Goose Island Beer Co.’s soon-to-open Salt Shed Pub (1357 N. Elston) on what turned out to be a perfect night for having a 312 on the river.

Let’s get this out of the way: Goose has found the perfect location and built the perfect brewpub.

Located behind Salt Shed and along the Chicago River, Salt Shed Pub is now the go-to for before/after concert drinks and light bites, as well as day drinking in full view of the Chicago skyline.

Goose Island President Todd Ahsmann jumped in the car to talk about the new location and Goose Island’s long history in Chicago as we ate one of the best smashburgers I’ve ever had (credit to Executive Chef Henry Pariser). Note: The smashburgers are on the Salt Shed Pub menu. Do yourself a favor…

Goose Island Brewing’s Salt Shed Pub officially opens May 3, 2024.
