What are you going to drink tonight?

Submitted by Hotel Putingrad on

Approaching the noon hour, just wondering what everyone's beverage of choice will be tonight to usher in the Harbaugh era? I'm generally a beer guy on game days but might have to kick it up a notch for tonight's special occasion.

Or should we abstain so as not to dull our senses?

What say you? Or should I say, what ales, you?

I actually tried FairLife whole milk for the first time after the whole kid at the press conference thing and liked it as far as milk goes. Stripping out 50% of the sugar and all of the lactose definitely makes a difference.

If I had a young family I probably wouldn't be too happy paying $3-4 for 1.5L though...

1) It's 130 degrees today.

2) Have to be fully functinal at work at 6:30 Friday morning.

3) I got hammered at a game as a student and remembered NOTHING about it.  I swore to myself that I'd never drink during games again to maximize my (slipping) memory and enjoyment.

I may adopt this policy for the season as well.

 

I kind of stopped enjoying Oberon over the years because it just didn't taste as good as I remembered it being on tap, out of  a mason jar at Dominick's.  Howeva, my wife picked up a 12-pack of Oberon in cans the other day, and I can't believe what a difference it makes.  Night and day.  I'm hooked all over again.  Thus, while the weather remains warm, Oberon from a can it will be.

This is a great question.  I just came down with a cold yesterday so not thinking beer would be the best for me.  I'll be at BWW for the game because I don't have FS1 so it is likely that alcohol would be consumed.  Maybe some whiskey?

Boilermakers. I've got pint bottles chilling, and a large bottle of scotch to add to my glass. I'm so fired up, I've been waiting for this since the 05 Rose Bowl. We're back, baby!

It just takes a lot to get me drunk. Not trying to toot my horn or anything, I'm not even a regular drinker. It's the same with medications, they'll make other people sick and I just won't feel it. I started mixing because I love beer, but i want a buzz without needing to run to the bathroom all night. I usually stick with a beer that has a clean finish, like Stella, or hoegaarden, or modelo, and any scotch will do since you don't really taste it. I usually end up having some Johnny Walker around the house, though, because it's such a smooth blend.
