What's in his cup: A Berry Chill Culture Club Card
He says: I haven't gotten carded in a long time, so this is kind of cool.
We say: Welcome to the Culture Club, mini-fro-me. As you'll spoon find out, our yogurt is neither doctored nor evil. But, we do admit our cups are freaking freezing. No clones about it.

Berry Chill at Oktoberfest!



What: Berry Chill at Oktoberfest!
Where: 3000 N. Lincoln Ave @ Southport
When: September 26: 5:00p.m. - 10:00 p.m. , September 27: 11:00 a.m - 10:00 p.m. , September 28: 12:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.

Homemade brats, free-flowing beer, and live oompah beats that can be heard from blocks away create a celebratory scene at this outdoor fete, held in a tent at the corner of Lincoln, Southport, and Wellington. 

St. Alphonsus was founded by German immigrants in 1882, and continues to recognize its German roots by celebrating an authentic Oktoberfest every September. Keeping with tradition, festival-goers can expect to experience homemade bratwurst, the "oom-pah" of German bands, the music of top area headliner bands, activities for kids ("Kinderfest"), and of course lots and lots of great beer! 

Thousands from Chicago of all ages attend and raise their stein to toast this German past time. Don't miss this traditional celebration and be sure to bring your appetite! 

Hope to BC'in you there!

Berry Important Person: Gail and Larson


Who: Gail and Lason
What's in their cups: Chocolate Amaretto with Oreos; Chocolate Amaretto with M&M's.
They say: We saw the smart car zipping down the road the other day. It was too cute – we had to follow it!
We say: At Barry Chill it's cool to yield to your cravings. Even covered in cookies and candy, the nutritional content in your cup still gets the green light at under 30 calories an ounce. So fueling up won't give you a spare tire around your mid-section.

Berry Important Person: Brenda & Val (CPD)


Who: Brenda & Val (CPD)
What's in their cups: Original topped with strawberries, blueberries, and granola (Brenda). Original with almonds, pineapple, and blueberries (Val).
They Say: We were down at the Farmers Market this morning and heard people talking about BC. So after hearing about the new location, we thought it'd be criminal to fight the craving.
We Say: With fruit toppings fresher than a Farmer's Market, the Original flavor becomes a truly arresting taste. Indulging like this should be against the law.
