Friday Drinking Thread
#OneOfThoseWeeks
Even a rollercoaster of a week for Michigan Football (which makes this on topic)...someone be my friend and drink with me.
Molson followed by hamms, my official sponsor. Pregaming my future drinking.

I just put Grey Goose in some tasty concoction I made at Firehouse Subs for lunch today. You know those Coke, 1 million variations machines?
It's delicious.
For clarification, I'm at home, not at Firehouse drinking Grey Goose with my "suicide soda" or whatever you call it when you revert back to your childhood at that 7/11 putting every top of pop in a 32oz Big Gulp.
Club on a Sub was amazing today.
How is Firehouse? They keep popping up in my area but so do the Dibella's and Jersey Mike's.
Not like a Jimmy Johns or Jersey Mike's, it's a little more "fast food" compared to those...you don't go for a healthy option, but it's not like McD's, BK, Wendy's either.
Definitely worth a try...I usually go for the Club on a Sub and substitute the dijon mustard for honey mustard.
Bit what is a 1 million variations machine?
Bryan, what I believe he is referring to is what is called a Freestyle Coke machine - see below. For each Coke product you select, you can select to have it as is ot add one of several flavors to it like orange, cherry, grape, lime, etc.
Mine was actually a lemonade and dasani flavored water concoction...pretty good.
And yes, it's the machine below.
So, what was the output of the machine that you mixed with the Goose?
Pink limonade, Sprite, Dasani strawberry flavored water, and a splash of sweet tea...it was actually pretty good.
On to the Sierra Nevada now though...back to reality.
But I think I might be hitting the spirytus tonight. On the rocks, with a little grapefruit juice for vitamins.
Went to Hooters on lunch break and never went back to the office! About to nap on the couch and sober up for when the wife gets home and grill some burgers and throw down some beers and watch the US women!
I think I might light the grill as well. I'm currenly hooked on bison burgers again...
Onto my second two hearted, I couldn't catch any trout in the river this morning/afternoon, at least there are a few on these bottles.

Whatever is available at Walgreens for Friday afternoon office drinking...Home brewed Apricot Ale when I get home.
Sober-mindedness is a gift! Do not forgo it's pleasures!

One of the fugitives in New York was shot and captured!
Shot and killed, actually
Work has been nonstop since my last vacation more than 2 months ago.
Will probably have a couple of thimbles of soju that my parents will invariably order at dinner.
Will probably try to kill my store-select Four Roses Single Barrel before I have to wake up at 5AM to get on the road for the Outer Banks!
Was hoping to start this, a couple minutes too late, oh well.
On my way to Doms for a jar of sangria or constant buzz (will be the lady's choice). After that will try to make our way over Hopcat, half off drafts in celebration of the SCOTUS news (no politics I know, but cheap drinks should be known about for those in A2). Also have half of my six pack of Uranus waiting for me at home to cap off the night.
Na zdravi!!
Mother fucker...I just spent $50 in beer at hop cat last night.

Hop Cat? Got to be new. Possibly related to this joint in GR that came in where GR's last good steak house used to be. Or is that place Hop Kitty? Anyway never been.
It's been there for a few years now...you are missing out. It was named he best craft beer bar in the state. They have several locations in GR, Lansing, Ann Arbor, and Detroit.

Thank you Mr Yost. I will happily drink with you.
The home bar construction continues (more floor leveling and slate installation work) so it's Dale's Pale Ale for me this afternoon. Wish I had a cold Stroh's though.
or there's no bar...
Touche! They will be en route.

Trader Joe's Merlot!!!!!!!!!
Trader Joe's Burbon!!!!!!!
(with pizza and USWNT)
My significant other called it quits on our 5-year relationship without warning or explanation yesterday. Met at 717 S. Divison first semester of our freshman year at UM. Needless to say, there will be considerably less Jack in my freezer after this evening.
Keep your head up. I got cheated on and dumped by a girlfriend of about 3.5 years, seemingly out of no where. In hindsight it was one of the best things to ever happen to me. Wouldn't be who I am today (or with my awesome wife) without it.
As the zen master says, this too shall pass.
to hear.
Drink up! It'll look better in the morning (plus about a year).
Best of luck.
heading to Toronto with my gf for my birthday trip, looking forward to some horse tartare and cocktails at Black Hoof
Can someone give me a quick review of Bells' Lake Lager?
On the Q train heading to Singlecut brewery right now, growler in hand.
Bought some Lagunitis Sucks. Never tried before, hope it doesn't disappoint

One of my favorites that they brew.
It is a great value. Can get a six pack for $9 or $10 around here. Not as good as Brown Shugga, but close enough.
This was a 32 is bottle and was 6.99 at meijer. Only time I have found it around here and still haven't found Brown Shugga

In Ann Arbor I have found Brown shuga at Busches and at Blue Front.

It has been a good week for me. In celebration of this, I will be opening my bottle of 16yr Lagavulin tonight. It will be so good.
Great week. 8.25% salary increase at main job, paper published (3rd in 2 years), second job I work, where i set my own hours and schedules, so I can retire at 55 is banging.
Currently, steaks on grill, kids out of school running roughshod in the yard/pool.
Oberon, bud light, Blueberry (a nice sativa), 3 olives grape vodka shots and Buttercrowns.
Harbaugh is coach. How does life get better???

Congrats. Especially on the paper!
(does wishing someone well help it rub off on the wishee? One can hope...)
It Won't (IMHO)
Not sure yet, Minick is coming over soon.
Love it. Kudos.
Just opened a Stone Go-To IPA. Probably pepper in a few homebrews later on. Enjoy the weekend!
