I live on the northside of the city, but work in the western suburbs. If you ever out in that direction, check out Malloy's finest in Naperville, just off of Ogden ave. They have pretty good prices and always have a good beer selection. Ask for Collin, he is their beer guy and can let you in on what they might not yet have out on the floor or what they may be expecting in the coming weeks.
As of this posting, he still had 3 bottles of Firestone Walker Abacus. I also scored some Goose Island Big John from Malloy's a solid week and a half before anywhere in the city had any. (I assume because of different distributors). If you're out west, check it out.
