Revolution Brewing forged a new partnership with the White Sox this season to bring fans the Revolution Brewing #SoxSocial Tap Room. Located in what was formerly the Extra Base, fans can enter the Tap Room via the stairs outside of Section 157.

Revolution Brewing

Revolution Brewing is Illinois’ largest independently-owned brewery and a Chicago favorite. The Revolution Brewing #SoxSocial Tap Room offers fans a variety of Revolution beer offerings, as well as other beer selections. The Tap Room also offers a full bar and rotating food cart, along with ballpark staples such as pizza and hot dogs.

Beer lovers looking to catch a unique view of the game can bring their drinks out to the patio that sits above the left-field corner. Revolution Brewing branding brings a unique look to the space, including beer barrels that double as tables.

#SoxSocial

Fans familiar with the former #SoxSocial Lounge on the 100-level concourse will be thrilled with the new size that the Tap Room provides for social media-targeted activities. Download the free MLB Ballpark app to check-in and receive special offers like a White Sox hat (presented by Coca-Cola), a 1901 team poster, $5 of Comiskey cash and additional prizes. At each game, one lucky check-in winner will win an autographed item signed by a White Sox player!

Keep your eyes peeled for the Twitter Vending Machine for an opportunity to win great prizes! Fans can use Twitter to win a variety of White Sox swag, such as a Yolmer Sanchéz Splash Zone poncho and a pin commemorating Jim Thome’s 2018 induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Be sure to stop by during the final home series of the season (September 24–26), when the Twitter Vending Machine will offer prizes in appreciation of Sox fans.

Free charging stations are available for when you need to recharge mid-game. By entering an email address or phone number, the locked charging box allows fans to restore their phone to full-battery without worry.

Special Events

Throughout the season, the Tap Room is the place to be for special visitors and events. Jack McDowell, Gene Lamont and Jason Bere stopped by during the 1993 White Sox Reunion to sign autographs and take photos with fans.

Top Chef winner and lifelong White Sox fan Joe Flamm recently held a pop-up kitchen in the Tap Room, serving up specialty creations of his own.

What’s a White Sox theme night without some photo opportunities? The Tap Room let fans immerse themselves into Star Wars Night and Marvel Night while also creating some special memories with friends and family.

The Tap Room is open to visitors of all ages, though a valid ID is required for fans 21 and over to purchase and consume alcohol. Fans who are unable to take the stairs may visit the Guest Relations booth located behind home plate to be granted elevator access.
