Friday Night Drinking And Summer is Almost Gone Thread
Mates,
So I wake up from a much-needed power nap to find no friday night drinking thread. What the heck is going on around here? We are 13 days from the season opener and we are getting very close to the end of summer. Yesterday I watched oldest son's football scrimmage and it felt alot more like October up here than mid-August. Two questions:
1. Your drink of choice tonight is....
2. Your plans to squeeze the most juice out of what is left of summer is/are....
Have a great weekend while you watch for surfacing subs.

That movie with grossly inaccurate science about space and black holes with Matthew M.cconaughey. At least the science was better than that lousy George Clooney movie...

Smaller brewery in Chicago called Atlas Brewing; they started packaging not so long ago. Rookery Rye IPA. Not bad. If you're ever in Chicago, check out their brewpub on Lincoln ave, then head up the road to Delilah's, one of the best bars in the city.

Check out Apex Predator by Off Color Brewing, which is what I am drinking here in Chicago. The girlfriend is going to the rooftop at the Wit - sounds fucking terrbile - so I am at home watching TV and drinking Apex and a bottle of inexpensive vodka (not together).

I can't cook to save my soul, but I can and have tended bar. When you own a restaurant you need a "signature" drink list. So for a long time I've been experimenting with triangle drinks of all types. That hobby did not end when I sold my restaurant. So for your enjoyment here is my latest:
The dry chocolate french ginger martini
1 part Domain Canton Ginger Liquor
1 part Gray Goose Orange Vodka
1 part Dark Godiva Chocolate Liqour
1 part Dark Creme de Coco
1 1/2 parts Silver Patron
Blend in a shaker with lots of ice and shake until the steel is frosty
Pour into a cold martini glass and garnish with a slice of orange and a piece of dark chocolate.
If that is not sweet enough substitute Cointreau for the vodka
Happy imbibing

We may make a day of it in DC. Scout out Kangaroo Boxing Club for lunch, walk the dog and wife at the Tidal Basin and the Mall. Dinner in Capital Hill.

of that trip, including a bombing run over da 'utes' stadium - it can be like the death star video with hoke and harbaugh, but you get to live it. you can drop flour bombs on the utes. there is a funny story that i'll share about a couple of my alaska buddies, bush pilots and big-heavy pilots some day when we all hook up for beers at the big house. you'll get a laugh out of it.

Got home from work and starting sampling from my bourbon collection:
1.) Started drinking the following bourbons in this order (one double of each): Weller's 12 year, George T. Stagg barrel strength and Pappy Van Winkle 12 year. I followed that up by drinking Snake River Stampede 8 year (blended rye) with a splash of coke
2.) The plans for the rest of my summer are to make my house on 2 acres I just moved into in Bozeman, MT more badass. Put in a 100, 80 and 60 yard pitching range to work on my golf game. I plan on building horseshoe pits this weekend and drinking copious amounts of whiskey until Monday when I start school back up...
Counting down the hours until I get to see HARBAUGH and the boys start the fall off in the appropriate way with a W @ Utah in a hard fought game!!!
