Episode 6: Superdawg and Lake Effect Brewing team up to brew Super Bier

Over the Barrel

Superdawg, the old-fashioned Northwest Side drive-in known for its boxes stuffed with fat franks and fries, has expanded into a new domain: beer. The restaurant has teamed with Irving Park’s Lake Effect Brewing Company to make Super Bier, a German-style brew designed to pair with hot dogs. Over the Barrel cohosts Ben Meyerson, Charles Berman and Rich Bird sat down with Superdawg's social media manager Ben Ustick and Lake Effect's head brewer Clint Bautz to talk about the project, taste the beer and eat some hot dogs. Over the Barrel is a beer podcast from Sun-Times Media Local, focusing on beer, craft breweries and other interesting alcohol-related news in the Chicago area.
