i am failing at sober october
Good work. Are you feeling any different/better, or just not drunky?
5 days in so far. Definitely feel 'better' with regards to sleeping, which is huge, but also missing the social aspect of my fav brewery. That always has been the main driver of much of my drinking, just being out among the humans.

Slept not so great again though.
For me as well. I'm definitely a social drinker. That said, we had dinner with our wine-snob lesbian friends last night and I drank only tonic water and lime, and one lemon soda. So I feel pretty good about that.

I went to a brewery yesterday with the wife and only had a soda. You can do it!
Still sleeping like shite...........
Rode up Meadow Mountain yesterday... forgot about the beers I'd packed for post-ride. 
So currently, I'm about 48 hours booze-free.

Just met a south side buddy for da Bears game. At a brewery.
Had zero beers. Just water.
Also, fucking Bears.

Shit... probably should take this over to the "What are you drinking" thread. 
I failed, I would like to have a good reason. but I have a personal life I don't want to talk about.
I'll just leave this here......

Mojito Jello Shots
Everything there is to love about a refreshing mojito—in the form of jello shots! The the perfect balance of lime and mint.

you didn't fail, you just drank. you DID go almost a week without one, so that's probably a win.
7 days down, feels like a looooooooong time.

I don't mind them if I can't see them.
to quote my local favorite brewer/brewery; "your favorite milkshake IPA sucks".
You're gonna drive me to drink with this tom foolery!
Fuck THOSE things.
You'd better not tell me you like Milshake IPAs. 'Cause that shouldn't even be a thing.
me too. I was drinking quite a bit lately. I still say the hardest thing is the social aspect. I'm really not craving it aside from the 'habit' of going out after a ride or work.
keep it going as long as you can or want to.
TBH, I'm only vaguely aware that a "milkshake IPA" is even a thing. The couple I've had were "meh", at best. Pretty sure it's just the new hipster beer. Which is fine. If I never see another Gose or Sour in my life, it will be too soon.You'd better not tell me you like Milshake IPAs. 'Cause that shouldn't even be a thing.
I do however QUITE enjoy these new fangled, New England IPA's
Agreed on all counts. I shall not abide this type of tomfuckery:
I also discovered, just now, that there is a category called "smoothie IPA"...
Is that what you get if you mix carrot juice with IPA?I also discovered, just now, that there is a category called "smoothie IPA"...
nonono milkshake/smoothie shit... but dial it back a notch and bring me something like a breakfast stout ALL DAY LONG
This should help: sierra nevada gives money to the wilderness society
Keeps me from drinking the shit.
