Decisions, Decisions

Do I just have a regular bottle of oatmeal milk stout tonight like a responsible adult who needs to work in the morning, or do I crack the 1+ pint bottle of gingerbread stout? I want the gingerbread, but once that bottle is open, I have to finish it. No saving!

  • Do you get hung over easily?  If so, I'd say the regular bottle.  If not, then I agree with @nfp147, both sounds like the best possible choice.

  • Lol!! I love how GP knows my work from home schedule.

    I'm staying up late and drinking gingerbread stout. Why can't every day be like this?

    PS: it's not as gingerbready as I hoped, but it is pretty good.
