Project Description
Raising The Bar: Industry Ales Brewpub
I happened to pass by Industry Ales one day after having lunch with a client and I ended up meeting the co-founder, Matt Wiegers. He showed me the incredible space hidden behind the unassuming front & I was amazed! I was expecting a typical Chicago railroad style bar (long & thin)…but what I saw was a visually enticing, spacious and expansive multi-level space. Just when I thought Matt had shown me everything, there was another space, then another, and another! What I discovered that day was an impressive restaurant, bar, private events space, and brewery and I knew that a virtual tour would be the only way to showcase the space.
It was a joy working with Matt and Tracie Irvine, the director of events. We shot the virtual tour and still photos of the space. The still photos have helped them polish up their website, and the virtual tour has enhanced their Google business listing. We are currently planning a bespoke version of the virtual tour that will have dynamic features built into it to further tell the story of Industry Ales and showcase the event spaces.
Event Spaces Galore
If you’re looking for a semi-private or totally private place to hold your event, Industry Ales can accommodate!
The Frunchroom (great name, right?! I’ll admit that when I first moved to Chicago many years ago, I had no idea what that was, but iykyk!) – a semi private upstairs spot with its own bar.
The Millroom – a totally private room with its own bar, restrooms, eye catching murals and stage!
Brew Room – and the pièce de résistance, a brew room where they craft their own beers.
