Friday Night CFB & Drinking Thread

Velveteen Habit by Ale Asylum out of Madison.
According to the bottle...
"Bursting with citra and cascade hops, this IPA has a juicy hop presence with a rich malt spine.
Heavy-handed dry hopping lends a rapturous floral aroma that will linger on your palate as well as your mind."
Pretty accurate! Cheers!

Mic ultra, I’m 25 going on 55. I’ll watch UCLA and Colorado. No good games on tonight but I’m a whore for D1 college football.
September 29th, 2018 at 1:16 AM ^
Same. Give me a game--any D1 game--and I can find a reason to watch.
September 28th, 2018 at 9:07 PM ^
Looks like asiasi is starting for UCLA.
September 28th, 2018 at 9:14 PM ^
So apparently former DT recruit Boss Tagaloa is now the starting center?
Probably break out some whole milk later.
September 28th, 2018 at 9:16 PM ^
I'll do two Founder's beers Tonight. First will be Better Half and my 2nd will Backwoods Bastard. I'm still thinking about Murderwolf. I did not know how long he's been with us, since the 40s. Our defense is as fierce as Murderwolf!
September 28th, 2018 at 9:23 PM ^
that corner td pass should have been broken up. Colorado's CB screwed that up even with good position. he practically watched the ball into the receivers hand.
September 28th, 2018 at 9:25 PM ^
Even after a grand slam, the Yankees are back the pounding Sox pitching. Good. The Yankees will similarly beat on that ass during our playoff series.
September 28th, 2018 at 9:37 PM ^
You crazy! Sox take care of the bombers come playoff time!
I'm sure whoever Atlanta (Bravos fan here) matches up against will knock them out, unfortunately.
September 28th, 2018 at 9:29 PM ^
Chris Sale is cashed out. David Price CANNOT BEAT NY. It's a thing with him. Yanks beat Sox in 5. Bank it.
September 28th, 2018 at 10:10 PM ^
You have to get past a 1 and done wildcard game first
September 28th, 2018 at 9:36 PM ^
At work for a couple more hours..then home to, I'm not exactly sure what beer to crack. Either way, a 10.3 lb pork butt is going on the smoker for a nice big bottle (beer) share tomorrow. Will likely be opening a couple things through the night as I check on the pork. Pastry stouts, football and swine tomorrow. Can. Not. Wait.
September 28th, 2018 at 10:57 PM ^
+1 for for using the word “swine”.
September 28th, 2018 at 9:46 PM ^
Watching Tree House Masters.
Vodka and Sanpelligrino grapefruit soda.
September 28th, 2018 at 9:55 PM ^
I refuse to believe anyone actually likes the taste of whisky by itself.
That said, I am drinking cold (warm is gross) apple cider with caramel vodka. It’s incredible.
September 28th, 2018 at 10:02 PM ^
I refuse to believe anyone actually likes the taste of eating a lemon by itself.
That being said, whisky (nice job spelling it correctly btw) is the nectar of the gods. And neat is the only way to fly IMO.
September 28th, 2018 at 10:26 PM ^
It’s the combination of the taste and the immediate relaxation that occurs after the first sip that can not be beat. Once you learn this, there is no other option.
September 28th, 2018 at 10:58 PM ^
I do. I mean, not cheap whisky...
September 28th, 2018 at 11:10 PM ^
When I was a sophomore in college I had decided that if I was going to grow up and be a man, I had better start liking whisky. Well, someone left a handle of garbage whisky in my room, so I thought that if I could choke down that handle of whisky with no chaser, that I would become acclimated. The next two weeks were spent drinking that swill and now anything other than the taste of that puts a big ole smile on my face.
September 28th, 2018 at 10:01 PM ^
Yellow Spot Irish whiskey. Yum
September 28th, 2018 at 10:33 PM ^
Many stupid penalties keeping Colorodo drives alive.
September 28th, 2018 at 10:37 PM ^
no thank you on tulane/memphis. based on uniform colors alone it is unwatchable.
only mildly interested in ucla/colo
oldest son's team won big, and are playoff eligible. happy for him/them.
daughter feeding us all pulled pork sandwiches. it is going well with the red pop i'm drinking.
September 28th, 2018 at 10:38 PM ^
Went to Founder’s and got a case of MFDS and Harvest Ale. Quite happy.
September 28th, 2018 at 10:38 PM ^
first and 30 ooooops
September 28th, 2018 at 10:49 PM ^
Drinking The Oracle from Bells and watching London Has Fallen. Take the boats out for winter storage tomorrow and likely the piers next weekend. Summer is gone but football makes it ok.
September 28th, 2018 at 10:52 PM ^
Breckenridge Bourbon on the rocks!
September 28th, 2018 at 11:01 PM ^
What's the word on Speight? Any chance he returns this season for UCLA?
September 28th, 2018 at 11:15 PM ^
I think they said he’s available to play tonight.
Kelly just went with the dual threat freshman, and I think he looks pretty good honestly.
September 28th, 2018 at 11:05 PM ^
Voodoo Rangers and Bells Octoberfest. Cleaning out the fridge. Turning beer into piss and watching Chip Kelly continue to fail, haha.
September 28th, 2018 at 11:51 PM ^
I've decided to quit recreational drinking... I don't want someone to use it against me 4 decades from now when they're trying to make me look like a garbage human being for selfish gain.
September 29th, 2018 at 12:20 AM ^
If recreational drinking is what made you write this, then by all means, stop, thanks.
September 29th, 2018 at 12:32 AM ^
I know. If acting like a douchebag at your 60k a year prep school and Yale is going to limit your ability to ascend to the highest levels of government who will lead this country in the future?
September 29th, 2018 at 12:35 AM ^

Crazy thought here....it's not the alcohol, it's what you do. Sucks that alcohol makes (many) people make bad decisions but you're right; if you can't put your big boy pants on whilst consuming EtOH and not make terrible decisions, quit.
September 29th, 2018 at 12:01 AM ^
Remember, Nebraska outplayed this mighty Colorado team.
September 29th, 2018 at 1:15 AM ^
So what did we learn tonight: UCLA stinks.
September 29th, 2018 at 1:34 AM ^
People on the UCLA blogs calling for Speight. Is he even healthy?
September 29th, 2018 at 3:03 AM ^
Ohhh UCLA fans, what you don't know can hurt you. Nothing against the kid but I can't imagine we'll ever see pre-Iowa Speight again. He is not a QB I would be calling for.
