Man, I love that old Bottlerockets song. Nigel and Nick got tired of recording via video conference, so they packed up the beer wagon and marched their way to the dwelling of friend-of-the-show and social media guru, John Beaudoin, for a driveway fire-pit chat. As usual, craft brew was consumed, during conversations ranging from craft beer road trips to... well, other things.
Beers consumed during this episode:
- Fields & Ivy's Skeleton Theory #2 Double IPA
- Diametric Brewing's Ope My Bad Black IPA
- 5 year-old Boulevard Imperial Stout X Tart Cherry

Beware, this episode contains graphic images — Nick Parker was lazy and defiantly drank his beer from a can... When they started this show, the plan included a spring and summer full of road trips and guest interviews with craft beer lovers from all over. Alas, Lady Covid had other ideas. This week, Chalonda – aka Afro Beer Chick — joins nick and host Nigel Woodberry for a peek into the Chicago beer scene and... well, other things.

As if this podcast weren't weird enough, the quarantine makes it hard to do a show about the craft beer community when the community can't gather. So, we tried something new. Nigel and Nick hosted a virtual taproom for their latest show and brought on one of the owners of Diametric, Mac Lamken, to hear his story and talk a little about the "Together We Can" collaboration among area microbrews. We should probably do this again. Beers together is always a good thing.
