I had a surprising encounter this week. English speaking guy has spoken to me in the tram in my hometown of #Pilsen, Czechia, recognising the @notjustbikes pin on my backpack. He also asked if I know @nerd4cities, which is funny because he looked a bit like Ray himself. The fact you can both randomly encounter foreigner from the same rabbit hole and come across a friend from your middle school has to be one of the best things about living in a 200k city.

The tour is a bit corny for those who know a decent amount about brewing / PU -- if not, maybe pick-up @akrennmair 's books for some context -- but it's really worth it to visit the cellars.

I had the unfiltered barrel beer. It truly has its own character / element; Perhaps more like Budvar than PU. With the amount they have, I wish they offered more.

And finally before I wrap up my posts of the murals (despite having many more photos) I have one more to share, which is the Declaration of Immigration mural by the Yollocalli Arts Reach youth program run by the National Museum of Mexican Art.
Despite it being worn and having graffiti added to it, it resonates just as much with the community and the milieu of today as it did when it was first unveiled. #Pilsen #murals #Chicago #ArtAsActivism #ArtAsResistance
