Thirst Aid is a passionate exploration of Chicago’s world-class bar scene, and our mission is simple: To inspire you to discover it for yourself. Drinking Excessively
Not in a dangerous way, of course. Binge drinking is never a good idea. ‘Drinking Excessively’ is all about experiencing as much as we can, at as many bars, pubs, saloons, taverns, and watering holes as our meager budgets allow. We
leave no stone unturned, no matter how dingy, how dumpy, how fist-pumpy, how St. Louis-affiliated-y (we won’t tell if you won’t).
2. Writing Tirelessly
For every place we visit, an abundance of compelling, relevant, and entertaining content. The Who/What/When/Why/Where/How Much, as well as a detailed account of our experience. Will there be times that you vehemently disagree with us? Will all of our jokes be funny? Probably not. But will we ever withhold important information, keep the good spots to ourselves, or publish anything but our 100% honest opinion? Not a chance.
3. Giving Relentlessly
Make no mistake, our bar quest is fueled by genuine passion and curiosity. We’d be doing it with or without this website. But Thirst Aid is about you. Giving you the inspiration to drink outside your comfort zone. Giving you the resources to have the best girls night, game night, or Tuesday night ever. Giving you a forum to share your funniest, most outrageous bar stories. And hopefully, giving you a small taste of one of the best scenes in the country. We promise to do our part, but remember, it’s up to you to take action. Without fun-loving patrons, a bar is just stools, drinks, and a smooth slab of mahogany. And without your willingness to explore, these are just words on a page. Here’s to enabling your good times,
The Thirst Aid Team
