Light the Lamp Brewery cheers on the Blackhawks

Chicago Blackhawks fans filled the Light the Lamp Brewery in Grayslake wearing red, white and black jerseys waiting to watch the Blackhawks play the St. Louis Blues on televisions that filled every corner.

Owner Bill Hermes joked with the patrons as he poured beers called Red Line Ale, Bench Minor Blonde, Short Handed IPA and 1980 Miracle American Ale.

On the walls are banners from the 2010 and 2013 Stanley Cup championships, NHL hockey jerseys representing every team and photographs of star Blackhawk players.

"We are a hockey team bar. We are gear up for Blackhawks playoffs," said Hermes. "This is great bar, great brewery, great beers here, and a great team and we are getting pumped up for the Blackhawks in the playoffs."
