Two Brothers Brewing has had taps at Elfstrom Stadium in Geneva, IL, the home of the Kane County Cougars, for several years now. I had been sadly unaware of this as their taps are at the far end of the concourse by third base, and that means walking all the way around from the first base side entrance to find them, going past the usual macro crap, plus the Goose Island taps that got my attention (and beer dollars) first. I have nothing against the Goose, indeed the Halls are good people and probably more responsible than anyone else for the existence of a craft beer market in Chicago, but the Ebels are good folk too and I don't want others to pass up an opportunity to taste draught TBB beers out of ignorance as I too often had.

Nice find!
I've only recently been drinking Two Brothers, specifically, Domaine DuPage, which I thought was quite good. I've been wanting to try the cane & ebel, but haven't been able to find it yet.
What do they on tap there? I don't live in the area, but still like to hear good beer finds, like this one.

When I was there last the taps were Dog Days and Prairie Path.
Hurry a little if you want the Cane & Ebel. I'm not sure how much is left, since it was released on May.

The Two Brothers I drank at Macs was the best cask-conditioned beer I drank when I was in Chicago - and I did manager to try some GI.

I've been a fan of Two Brothers Imperial Stout for a long time. Its not as strong abv-wise as some, and therefore insanely drinkable.
Their Saison style (DuPage?) is quite good too, as are their PA offerings (Bitter End and Heavy Handed).
