Saturday night drinking thread

Submitted by MGoGrendel on
I've got some Tennessee whiskey, a cigar, and the post trade Brave's AAA playing the Phillies AAA baseball game (outside on the iPad). How about you? Anyone watching Rhonda's fight tonight?

Arizona iced tea, watching the UFC prelims now.  Don't have the extra cheese laying around for the PPV.  If one of you guys has a stream I'd check it out.  7 fights on the main card is cool.

I'll christen the thread with this

Just built a fire pit and drinking a Sam Adams Octoberfest. Just watched the Michigan Northern Illinois game. I can't believe we lost to OSU that year. Fucking Anyhony Gonzalaz.

Two of my favorite New Holland beers.  Dragon's Milk which is an all-time favorite.. and some Mad Hatter. 

Going to watch the fight.. I am a casual, but interested in seeing Rousey.

PPV other than main event is basically a Brazilian tribute to several guys that have been fighting for years.  Both Nogiera's, Shogun Rua and Bigfoot Silva are all exciting fighters but really, most of the fights don't mean anything.  None of them will be fighting for a title again.

I'm about to open up a kombucha that I made. Hassam black tea with freshly mashed sweet cherry juice. 

Then I'll keep packing up my house and I think I'll turn on some fights.

There was a party at the house today, followed by a trip to Willow Metropark for the second phase of the party and 2.5 hours of pool time, so after about seven hours of having to be social, rum and Cokes are the order of the day. I am not too worried as most of the booze should be absorbed by the Cracker Barrel breakfast that my visiting family wants to have tomorrow. As long as no one talks to me as I consume that breakfast, I should be fine.

Brought it back to NC from my trip to Michigan over the 4th, and cracked it open after a 12 hour tagged inventory at work today.

Horrocks has a great growler program.  I plan to bring back different beer (not available in NC) each trip.

I tried the Coney Island Root Beer tonight after hearing all the talk about hard root beer. I found it to be very sweet- not sure I could drink more than one. It also, not surprisingly, tasted much more like a mixed drink (ie, root beer mixed with vodka) than beer (the label does say that it is an ale with flavorings, rather then a "malt beverage"). At some point I'll try it as a root beer float-that could be tasty.
