Metropolitan Brewing

Metropolitan Brewing is a brewery located in Chicago, Illinois that was founded in 2008 by (former) husband and wife team Doug Hurst and Tracy Hurst. The brewery was originally located in a converted warehouse in a historically industrial area of the Ravenswood neighborhood in Chicago. In 2017, they moved to a larger facility with a taproom at 3057 N Rockwell Street in Chicago. Metropolitan focuses on brewing lagers in the traditional German style. They are the sole craft brewery in Chicago that produces only lagers. Mr. Hurst has earned a brewing diploma at the Siebel Institute of Technology & World Brewing Academy.
