It's short for Hennessy. It's been a while but I definitely earned it back in the day. LOL

Yum. Booze. I have as sophisticated of palate as Bluto from Animal House.

Being a veteran of drinking my dad's booze, I remember another Bowlesman brought a bottle of Bacardi 151, which I chugged down about 1/4 of. I ended the night fall down drunk and with a bleeding hand.

Good times!

Wow! That stuff is hardcore. You could probably use it to clean your catalytic converter. I had a similar experience with Popov Vodka. I remember drinking it like it was water and then falling down and cracking my head in the living room. Good times!

Sadder, but wiser Bears!

Let's hope this season gives us renewed spirit and vigor, not just liquid courage (stupidity).

Gordon Biersch at Aloha Tower used to be a great place to gather but it closed during COVID... Schedule one at Kona Brewery Block and I'll be there!

I've been to Busby's West in Santa Monica a few time.

I should watch out for info on the OC Cal Alums.

Expand full comment

I imagine some Cal alumni groups will be having watch parties though I wouldn't know the first place to look. If you're coming for Auburn, there will be tailgate info posted on twitter when its finalized and most of us tend to sit around section R!

Thanks, I would like to join.

Great idea! I will definitely attend some of these. I’d been intrigued by an article on Dokkaebier, this will push me through the doorway.

its a good time and great beer. loads of great food within walking distance to go grab as well.

I saw that one of the three breweries in the spot is Hella Coastal, one of the few black-owned breweries in existence. Great variety of brewing experiences under one roof. Can hardly wait to check it out. Go local brewers and Go Bears!!!

I plan on attending and am hopeful for a statement game.

Ah damn, sounds awesome, but can't make it. We did got to Dokkaebier visit before last, and it's actually three breweries sharing a space, so if you're not into bamboo beer, there's alternatives.

Have fun, and Go Bears!

LOL.

I had to look it up.

I would have bet Dokka Bier would be Dutch.

Asian craft beers. Yummy.

I really wish I could be there. Any chance of a Facebook or Youtube Live stream?

I remember sampling Sake down near the Berkeley Pier. Still there?

Expand full comment

live streaming reactions could be something to look at in the future on our end

Expand full comment

It would spare many excitedly repeated statement and typos. LOL

RSVP’d! Looking forward to meeting all the fantastic “write for California” writers

Expand full comment

im curious as to why write for california is in quotes haha

Expand full comment

Lol, just tried to separate it out so it wouldn’t be write for California writers play on words. But I can see how that might might have been taken out of context.

Expand full comment

haha youre fine haha

Expand full comment

Does this mean I can still come to the party? Lol
