Meet Mike Pallen. Sure, he started a super successful brewery in Elk Grove Village 8 years ago or something like that, but he is also just a really cool person. He had a whole life before beer in the music industry locally and across the country. He loves cars, sneakers, awesome food, and he is also a damn fine family man.

He also brought some crazy good Oxtail Sandwiches from Dorrie's Kitchen with some Sweet Honey Siracha Wings. As seen on @super_goode located in Elk Grove Village. So tasty. Check out @Super_Goode on Instagram and Youtube and he has a Merch store etc... Love what he is doing on the local food scene.

My friend Jeff Beal is the absolute GOAT. Longtime railroad man turned Wine Expert, Craft Beer lover, and bourbon guy. Sure he may look like Coach Quenneville but the man can spin a yarn as good as anyone. I love talking to the guy with or without microphones running and I think you all are gonna enjoy Jeff as much as I do.

My friend Edmer "Mer Abante is a bad Mother, for real. We met while I was in college and his musical performances blew me away along with hiw swag and general approach to life. 20+ years later the man has transformed himself into an even badder Motha, still killing the music world, raising 2 amazing kids with 2 different Moms and taking the tech world on with all the swag he approaches music with. @MERplay
