Holiday Winter Dash Beer Run
The Holiday Winter Dash Beer Run is a short fun run held on December 6, 2026 in West Town, Chicago. The event takes place between Goose Island Taproom and Midwest Coast Brewing with a 0.5K course linking the two taprooms. Roughly half of participants begin at Midwest Coast and half begin at Goose Island, and participants receive a beverage at each location.
Registration includes one craft beverage from Midwest Coast and one craft beverage from Goose Island, a choice of a collector's pint glass or a Brewery Running Series swag item, and access to on-site activities such as live music, food trucks, and games.
This is an untimed, open-course event on public roads. Participants are responsible for obeying traffic laws and for their own safety on sidewalks and streets. A valid ID is required to consume alcohol; underage participants will receive a token for a non-alcoholic beverage. Dogs and strollers are allowed on the course with care and caution. There will not be a bag check. The event is scheduled to proceed rain or shine. Refunds are available up to seven days before the event.
A portion of proceeds from this event supports local nonprofits; the organizing series reports more than $500,000 raised to date. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
