Draught Preservationists Scold Chicago Journal

Draught drinkers love peach, broadsheet
--------------------------------------
Chicago Journal Letters, June 20, 2007

I am writing on behalf of the Central Committees of the Ukranian Village Draught Beer Preservation Society and the Logan Square Draught Beer Preservation Society.

I would like to start off by saying that our Societies have been very pleased with the high quality of your publication, the Chicago Journal. Neighborhood draught drinkers look forward to picking up the Journal each week at local taverns and perusing the in-depth local coverage, the well-crafted prose of your reporters, and the thoughtful editorials offered within your pages.

Local Draught Beer Society Founder Conducts Great Survey of America's Taverns By Bicycle

John Greenfield, friend of draught beer and founder of the Ukrainian Village Draught Beer Society, is currently drinking, err I mean, riding his way across America. He writes...

"I am currently riding my bicycle from Oregon to Virginia,
along the TransAmerica Route,
stopping at taverns along the way as often as possible."



He will be keeping a log of his travels at barsacrossamerica.blogspot.com .

Good luck, and Godspeed, John!
