Episode 198 - FoBABlin' 2: FoBABlin' in the City

Each fall, Chicago holds one of the best beer fests in the country, so don't blame us for getting all giddy about it. We talk a lot about what we're excited for at the 15th Festival of Wood and Barrel-Aged Beers and review beers from some of the better breweries set to pour. Yes, a lot of the FoBAB talk has a bit of a relevancy expiration date, but there's a lot more general beer and festival discussion as we sip five impressive barrel-aged beers. But also, we answer humanity's best question, take sides on two late 90s teen movies, reveal Craig's jelly aversion, and get ready for some hot Jeff-on-Jeff action.
