OT: Friday Night Drinking Thread!

Submitted by SteelBrad on
Many of us are starting a long vacation. What are you imbibing this evening?

Me? Jameson and Ginger Ale (Vernors of course) before heading out on the town with the future Mrs.

PS. Happy Chrismahanukwankakah!

Does anyone know how old all of Jim's kids are, specifically the teens and pre-teens? I was thinking with such a massive relocation, the younger kids have to be the biggest issue. Further, the ages could give you an idea of how long he'd stay put (i.e. until s/he graduates high school), if he did make the move to Ann Arbor.

don't know if it is true... Is his kids from his ex-wife obviously wouldn't relocate, and they are school aged (I heard 8 and 15, but again..don't really know). That would be tough, but even if he works for the Raiders, they're likely to move from SF.

The usual.  Smirnoff and flavored (Harbaugh) soda water with a splash of (Harbaugh) cran, over (Harbaugh) ice.  And you can't forget a squeeze of (Harbaugh) lime.

...Traverse City at the Park Place.

Already had an All-Day and Lags IPA.

Tired from lots of travelling, debating whether or not to hit Minerva's or the Beacon for more booze.

Only drinkable beer on tap where I had lunch for five hours. I'll be hurting tomorrow. Edit: I mean, who drinks Winter ales? I hate coriander. But I don't hate Republicans.

since I'm not much of a drinker, how about Friday Night Vices ;)

I'm about to enjoy a nice joint made with a 50/50 blend of Bubba Kush and Blue Dream, two of my favorites. It finishes with a nice taste that makes your mouth water, the sign of a truly good medical grade smoke, none of that cotton mouth nonsense.

I wonder if Jim has his medical card in Cali?

My wife and I just opened a bottle of their sparkling Pinot Grigio. It's a Pinot Grigio made in to a champagne...really good especially because my wife loves champagne.

Picked up a few bottles when we were in Traverse City this summer.

I can't drink Founders and other micro brews that don't filter out the yeast.  I get one great beer down and then pay for it for hours with bloat and almost vomit.

Is there anything I can take to allow me to drink these great beers?  I have no issues with Shorts or Bells.

Breakfast Stout.  World Market here has started stocking it.  First time I have had it in a bottle, always on draft. Also picked up a 6 of Breckenridge Vanilla Porter, haven't cracked one open yet though.
