Beer Mountain Life Backpacks founder Chris Gates knows three things: beer, hiking, and backpacks. Well, he probably knows more than that. But just go with it, okay?

What are Beer Mountain Backpacks, you ask? Well, it might just be the best damned hiking backpack in the world. That's because it can hold 24 (yes, twenty-f***ing four) beers, along with a bladder for hydration, all while keeping them cold for extended periods of time. It took three years to make. We shit you not.

Anyway, we talk about the thing that scares Chris the most, which is murky water (what's lurking in the depths?), as well as some great Sacramento beers. This is a fun one.

Cheers!
