Coming at you with a lighter episode for this dark, cold time. Grace and Alida took to the backyard for a campfire on a frigid day to hot poker some Schell's Bock. In related news, the history of bock is SUPER fascinating. The Babes also talk a bit about surviving winter - both us humans and our animal friends. Grace talks turtles and wood frogs and bears...OH MY! One of the keys to surviving winter, especially during COVID times, is connecting to your community. We love our podcasting community and all of our Babes in Brewland!
