Epiphany Episcopal Church

It’s Friday night and all the hipsters are going to…church? In a partnership with Empty Bottle Presents, Epiphany opened its doors to the rock community in mid-September with acts like Low, Jenny Lewis and the wacky Dan Deacon performing shows. At first it might seem daunting to attend a rock concert in such a sanctified place, but the crisp and booming acoustics simply put Aragon to shame. The absence of pews combined with flowing Goose Island beer and beautiful lit-up murals transforms the church into a full-fledged rock hall with an inkling of godliness.

MillerCoors

Unproven around these parts? Maybe. But we really love beer, and we can’t see why anyone would not want their work environment doused in brew. The joint endeavor of Molson Coors Brewing Co. and SABMiller PLC just signed the papers for its brand new Wacker Drive headquarters, which will reportedly even feature a rooftop beer garden. (“Let’s move this meeting to the roof.”) According to Crain’s, MillerCoors will be Chicago’s twenty-third largest company, and given that alcohol is pretty much the one industry that is recession-proof, we envision long illustrious careers. Yeah, when it comes to taste, we prefer real locals like Goose Island or Two Brothers, but who are we to be overly picky?
