Class was small and intimate. Kyle was a great teacher, guiding us through all the steps of creating the flag painting and would walk around checking our progress and taking any questions. The goose island beers were appreciated - I liked all of the samples. I'm very happy to be able to hang my painting on my wall, and I'll definitely check out future classes at West Elm or with Kyle.

My friend and I decided to go to this event as a nice Thursday activity. We had so much fun learning about the beers provided by Goose Island and painting the Chicago Flag with the help of Kyle from the Antwique shop.
