Two Brothers Brewing Company Purchases America’s Roundhouse in Aurora

Illinois real estate - homes for sale and information for buyers and sellers. Homes in Illinois by real estate agent Eric Rogers

Two Brothers Brewing CompanyIn perhaps one of the biggest real estate news stories of the spring, Two Brothers Brewing Company announced Tuesday evening that it had purchsed the former America’s Roundhouse in Aurora. Two Brothers Brewing Company is owned by co-founders Jason and Jim Ebel and currently operates a microbrewery and tap house in Warrenville. Two Brothers has been in operation since 1996 and has been constantly expanding – adding additional capacity and additional types of beer seemingly every year. Two Brothers beers have been distributed all over the midwest and have a cult-like following both at home and abroad for championing rare brewing styles and ingredient combinations.

Two Brothers Brewing Company reportedly paid around $1.1 million for the former Walter Payton’s Roundhouse in Aurora with plans to re-structure the operations there. The brewing company has been operating the Two Brothers Tap House in Warrenville for several years and it has become a prime destination for fans of Two Brothers beers. The addition of the huge America’s Roundhouse to the Two Brothers portfolio will no doubt allow the company to expand both its brewing operation as well as hopefully serve as a second brewpub with a central location to downtown Aurora. The Two Brothers facebook page has been abuzz ever since the announcement with fans of the company cheering the deal.

Cosley Zoo in Wheaton a Great Summer Trip

Cosley ZooToday my family and I took a trip out to Wheaton to visit the Cosley Zoo – lured out by the sunny weather and the promise of near-60 degree temperatures. It was a close choice between the Cosley Zoo and the Phillips Park Zoo in Aurora but we have been to the Phillips Park Zoo dozens of times and wanted to check out something new. I have to say, for a smaller regional zoo, the Cosley Zoo is excellent. We had a great time checking out the baby sheep just born on 3/31 and watching an American Kestral and a pair of Red Foxes being fed. A few of the animals were still off-exhibit for the winter but most of them were out and about. The facilities at the Cosley Zoo were pretty well-kept and the price was just right – free for Wheaton Park District residents and $3 for non-residents.

As the weather warms, many families are going to be looking for those short, cheap day-trips and I definately want to bring the Cosley Zoo up as a great way to spend an afternoon.
