Just in time for Halloween and Elgin’s zombie-themed “Nightmare on Chicago Street' party, Black & Gray Brewing Co. in East Dundee is unveiling a new beer — Resurrection Ale.
Chris Kennedy, director of brewery operations for Black & Gray Brewing Co. in East Dundee, shows the tanks holding what will become Resurrection Ale, a beer being made for Elgin’s “Nightmare on Chicago Street.”
When she mentioned the idea to Black & Gray salesman Casey Sleeman, he brought it to the brewery, which jumped at the chance to collaborate with the downtown pub/restaurant.“‘Nightmare is a great event, and we are bringing some history to it,” said Chris Kennedy, Black & Gray’s director of operations.
“It operated from the 1860s until Prohibition shut it down in 1920,” Kennedy said. “Another company kept making beer there illegally until 1923, when the feds raided it.” Resurrection Ale, created by Black & Gray Brewing Co. for Elgin's Nightmare on Chicago Street, will be served from taps with this handle at Elgin Public House and other downtown bars when the zombie-themed party is held Oct. 21.
Resurrection Ale has been a relatively straightforward beer to make, Kennedy said. Unlike many American craft beers and their myriad flavor profiles, German brews must follow that country’s purity laws for what can and cannot be in something labeled as beer, he said.
