First 2021 Weekend in Chicago Beer — Scottish troops at their their billet on New Year’s Day, 1916. Bagpipes, kegs and football ready. Flickr photo from National Library of Scotland.

As it turns out, I’ve been busy pumping a lot of last-minute New Year’s Eve beer events into my previous calendar article. I cut a few shortcuts by setting announcements with both New Year’s Eve and Day events so they cover both dates.

I have seen reports that some areas of northeastern Illinois have been able to lower their COVID infection rates. Maybe enough that indoor dining can resume. But this is dependent on everybody having taken the correct precautions over Chirstmas. So do your part, wear your mask, and keep your sanitized fingers crossed.
