Friday Night Drinking/CFB thread
Anyone else watching the DIII championship or South Dakota State boatrace Albany and having a beverage? I'm a sucker for DIII and FCS in the post season. The championship game between North Central and Cortland has been a dandy so far.
Just had a glass of Heavens Hill Bottled in Bond and now I'm onto Iron fish Distillery four cask.

LOL. Countdown to Christmas is fun time in my house.
December 15th, 2023 at 10:48 PM ^
I'm more of a "Fa la la la Lifetime" kind of guy. I have eaten a gummy and now am sipping on some iced water.
December 15th, 2023 at 8:45 PM ^
Miller Lite and music, nice to relax and unwind from a very long week.
December 15th, 2023 at 8:45 PM ^
Found North 18 year whiskey. Fantastic. Cheers to all my MGoBlog Brothers and Sisters.
December 15th, 2023 at 8:48 PM ^
Ol Sal in the other thread is about to make me drink something...
December 15th, 2023 at 8:50 PM ^
Hemlock?
Bless his heart when he gets on his soapbox.
December 15th, 2023 at 8:49 PM ^
Thanks for the reminder. Drinking a cream stout and just turned on the Division III championship.
Cheers my fellow MGoBloggers!

HH Bib is a very solid Bib, with a good price per quality pour measure. Henry McKenna 10yr Bib you may also enjoy in that same class. New Riff Balboa Rye for me, smooth without your traditional rye spice notes, cheers!

just home from high school hoops game. will probably turn on the tele for some football americano.
lions play tomorrow night. i hope they turn it around as they looked w-e-a-k vs. chicago and in general the last few weeks. and actually it was the offense that let us down last week, scoring 13 points. they stunk up the joint and put the defense in terrible position with turnovers.
December 15th, 2023 at 8:58 PM ^
I went to Heavens Hill distillery earlier this year and enjoyed a lot they had to offer.
drinking a Peroni and watching Home Alone w my 5 year old for the third time in 36 hours.
go blue.
December 15th, 2023 at 9:02 PM ^
I can relate. My hoodlums are really into the Grinch (Jim Carrey) right now.
December 15th, 2023 at 9:12 PM ^
Haha not bad either. The repetition will get ya
December 15th, 2023 at 9:49 PM ^
Did you now that the girl that plays Cindy Lou Who (Taylor Momsen) is now the lead singer for The Pretty Reckless.
December 15th, 2023 at 9:51 PM ^
No surprise. She crushed Where Are You Christmas.
December 15th, 2023 at 9:01 PM ^
Nothing fancy tonight: Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.
December 15th, 2023 at 9:09 PM ^
Nope. Watching Reacher season and drinking Glenlivet founders reserve.
December 15th, 2023 at 9:13 PM ^
Was gonna start new season of reacher tonight, but got sidetracked with football
December 15th, 2023 at 9:13 PM ^
This D3 game is extremely entertaining!
December 15th, 2023 at 9:15 PM ^
Happy to have finally found a bottle of Yamazaki 18 (I've been looking for one for the last 6-7 years). Won't be drinking it yet.
Currently having a Green Spot (with the Zinfandel cask finish).
December 15th, 2023 at 9:52 PM ^
Congrats on the Yamazaki 18 👍.
Hope you are enjoying your "new" home and celebrating with some of your favorite pours. Is the TC port finish a decent pour? Saw a special release TC cherry barrel proof today. Can pick one up for you if you like. Blanton's for me tonight... Cheers everyone 🥃.
December 15th, 2023 at 11:23 PM ^

Heineken Silver because the Pistons don't deserve the Oberon Eclipse. Those are for the Lions tomorrow night.
December 15th, 2023 at 10:14 PM ^
Do you get the NFL Network in Russia??
Was looking forward to watching the game until I found out I couldn't...
December 15th, 2023 at 11:10 PM ^
Go Lions 🏈
Definitely need a win Saturday!!
December 15th, 2023 at 9:32 PM ^

December 15th, 2023 at 9:36 PM ^
Mayim Bialik is out as jeopardy host so at least one good thing happened today.
December 15th, 2023 at 9:36 PM ^
The DIII Championship is a great segue into Bad Bowl (Which Sometimes Produces An Entertaining Bowl) Season.
December 15th, 2023 at 9:38 PM ^
Wrapping kid’s gifts, have a Sam Adams Cold Snap in hand
December 15th, 2023 at 9:47 PM ^
Weekly D&D session and sipping on Holladay Soft Red Wheat. Good stuff!
December 15th, 2023 at 9:49 PM ^
I ordered the large, but this was all I got.
December 15th, 2023 at 10:01 PM ^
looks sus, like you might have lowered the level of liquid in that tanker before you took the pic.
December 15th, 2023 at 9:55 PM ^
North Central's DBs are terribly coached. Not sure how you can stand on the goal line on 3rd and 4 from the 10 and play man.
December 15th, 2023 at 9:56 PM ^
North Central might run for about 500 yards and lose.
December 15th, 2023 at 9:59 PM ^
Cheers Teach_Coach_GoBlue !!!
Hope all is well for you and your family.
The Rockford Meijer is doing a barrel pick release tomorrow morning at 7 am. It's a Old Forester Single Barrel. 126 proof I think. I got one from them earlier in the year, they are very good 👍.
Have a great evening and weekend.
December 15th, 2023 at 10:17 PM ^
The family is good! I'll tell you, 3 kids feels like WAY more than 2 kids, but all is good here. Enjoy the holidays my friend, Merry Christmas!
December 15th, 2023 at 10:13 PM ^
Samichlaus Schwarzes. Gold. Enjoying Cortland and North Central. Tied again with 1:20 to go. NC may have scored too soon. Going for two though. We'll see.
Not tied after all.
December 15th, 2023 at 10:18 PM ^
Tequila Ocho reposado. Packs a hell of a punch with a little trazodone.
December 15th, 2023 at 10:43 PM ^
Out with the MGoWife and MGoDog at “Senoia (GA) Alive After Five“ street festival drinking a local Pearl and Pine brewery “Cruel World” Imperial Chocolate Stout,
December 15th, 2023 at 10:50 PM ^
Sounds like a great cold/cool weather libation. Stouts are so delicious 😋
December 15th, 2023 at 11:00 PM ^
CFB? Nah, not tonight. Watching Reacher, Season 1 (again) while I ponder upgrades to the audio for the TV. And. Season 2 is indeed available (yay).
2.1 3.1.2 5.1.2 7.1.2 etc. or optical out to discrete components. Decisions decisions.
Drinking a mug of hot water, which mug is inscribed "illegitimi non carborundum", and which beverage is the standard choice of this (temporarily) bored, semi-retired (again) Wolverine.
Enjoy the game(s) !
December 16th, 2023 at 9:28 AM ^
We watched the first three episodes of season 2 last night. Will probably go back and watch season 1 again when we're done.
December 15th, 2023 at 11:40 PM ^
Visited the Old Forester distillery this afternoon - sampled a nice bourbon flight. Dos Equis with dinner. No football on this hotel TV though. : (
December 15th, 2023 at 11:44 PM ^
