Next Hash #1425
2nd Annual 8 Beer Stop Super Winter Shiggy Hash
2/19/2006 2:00 PM
Hare: Horn-E & Rear Loader
Venue: Catherine Chevalier Woods / Cabana Club
On East River Road and Bryn Mawr
Near the Cumberland Blue Line Station. This is the second rendition of the popular hash from last year. Hash will be in some serious shiggy and the beer stops will be in challenging locations, but will be worth the effort. We are expecting snow on Thu, Fri and Sat with a partly sunny and 27 degree Sunday, this should make for excellent winter shiggy conditions! Dress warm! On-In will be in a grove, but will then move into the Cabana Club after the circle for your comfortable drinking pleasure. I dont think the trail will be dog or stroller friendly.

Febrewary Hash Returns in Indiana!
Joint Hash w/Second City

Hare(s): EZ on the A$$ and Soar Balls
Venue: 3 Floyds Brewery – 9750 Indiana Parkway, Munster, Indiana 46321. Phone: (219) 922-3565

After a 2-year hiatus, Soar Balls, with the help of Easy on the Ass, is once again putting the brewery back in Febrewery. Wake the kids, phone the neighbors, and bring your own sorry butt out to the 3 Floyds brewery (makers of Robert the Bruce, Pride and Joy, and Alpha King, among others) and brewpub on Sunday, Feb. 12. There will be a brewery tour starting at or about 1:00 PM, followed by a little hash run, starting around 2:45 (to accommodate those taking the train), and down-downs will take place in the brewpub. If you’re a homebrewer, feel free to bring out some of your product for a little tasting.

To get to 3 Floyds, take the Edens/Kennedy/Dan Ryan/Bishop Ford freeway (aka I-94) south to the first exit in Indiana (Calumet) and proceed about 2.5 miles south to Superior (just past the Speedway station). Turn right on Superior and go about .25 mile to Indiana Parkway, turn left and proceed about .2 mile, and 3 Floyds will appear on your right.

If you’re not inclined to drive, you can catch the South Shore Line from the Millennium Park/Lower Randolph station (lower level of Randolph between Michigan Ave and the Millennium Park garage) at 11:59 AM if you’d like to hit the tour or at 2:00 PM if you’re just interested in running. Rhotan has volunteered his van to shuttle folks to and from the Hammond stop in Indiana. Trains return to the city, leaving from Hammond, at 4:20, 6:20, 8:20 and 10:20 PM.

NOTE: This is the SOUTH SHORE line, not Metra. It’s operated by the Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District. Click here for their website. Don’t get on the wrong train. I believe it will cost $4 each way.

This Hash is preceded by the Chinese New Year Parade, which steps off at 1:00 p.m. from the Gate at Cermak and Wentworth.

Hashers planning to watch the Parade will meet prior to 1:00 at the Tea Leaf Cafe at 2336 S. Wentworth #105 (the entrance is on the south side of 23rd Place). This location is approximately 1 mile from the Inn Between. The Parade typically lasts 1 hour and 30 ~ 45 minutes. So allow enough time to get to the Inn Between, which is approximately one mile from the Tea Leaf.
