Blind Pig Brewery

An ideal place for the beer and pigs lovers :)! The Blind Pig Brewery is a pleasant bar situated in the town of Champaign (Illinois). They have got very large beer selection and they are brewing their very own beer as well. The origin of brewery's name comes from the period of Prohibition, when “pig” was the slang term for a mason jar and “blind pig” was an unmarked mason jar. Many legal saloons served bootlegged booze, which was always served in blind pigs. So if you wanted the good stuff, you asked the bartender for a blind pig.
Luckily Prohibition is finished and we can legally sip our beer in the bar. I wish I could try one, made in the Bling Big Brewery. In the view of many barflies it's probably one of the best bars in the U.S.
