Goose Island Beer Company Corporate Office

The first brewpub was very small and was located in Lincoln Park, Chicago. The name comes from a nearby island. The company moved into a larger facility in 1995. A second location was opened 1999 in Wrigleyville. In 2011, Anheuser-Busch purchased the company.
