Sadie kicked off a caffeinated tour of the Midwest with a week in KC for the U.S. Coffee Championships Regional Qualifying event, and sipped and savored at all her favorite KC bev outposts - Post Coffee Co., Hugo Tea, Kill Devil Club, Ruby Jean's Juicery, The Foundry, Broadway Cafe, Beer Kitchen, Il Lazzerone, Doughnut Lounge, Rye, and Kaldi's Coffee were just a few highlights. She hit the road for a multi-city Caffeine Crawl research/check in trip, well caffeinated and ready for more!

First stop in Detroit? Dessert Oasis Coffee Roasters - I sipped a lovely Peru pourover and admired the street view of downtown. A late lunch accompanied brews from Atwater Brewery and Short's Brewing Company at the Dime Store.

~ Chicago, IL ~

A quick overnight stop in Chicago meant beer at Revolution Brewing Brewpub, and when in Logan Square, early morning caffeination for the road happens at Ipsento. Passing through Peoria, IL also meant a stop for a cappuccino and email catchup at Thirty-Thirty Coffee.

Madison will host its first Caffeine Crawl late this summer, and judging from this trip, Crawlers are in for a fantastic event!

Waffles at Indie Coffee, pourovers at Johnson Brothers Coffee Roasters, and a great El Salvador espresso from 4 Monkeys Coffee Roasters at 5th Element Coffee kicked off the day.

Kin Kin coffee & sleek vibes were on tap at A-Ok Sunshine & Spirits, and an Anodyne Coffee macchiato at Crescendo Espresso Bar + Music Cafe preceeded a lunch break at Johnson Public House. The Commuter from One Barrel Brewing and a Kickapoo Roasters pourover ​

Checking in with Caffeine Crawl Omaha shops meant brews and great chats with Ian at Beansmith Coffee Roasters.

Nebraska caffeination continued with a cappuccino at Archetype Coffee, shaken espresso at Muglife Coffee Roastery, and Hardy Coffee Co. drip at Aromas Bliss in Old Market.

Scriptown Brewing wrapped up a successful day in Omaha and a fantastic two weeks of caffeination - we're looking forward to the upcoming midwest Caffeine Crawls of 2016! 

Cheers ~ Sadie
