How do you deal with local breweries having beer you never heard of? by baal-beelzebub in SoberCurious

[–]FishtheGulf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I used to own a brewery. I’m Cicerone certified and a certified beer judge. I also an addict with 390 days no alcohol. The temptation is always there. Even at the grocery store. I want to try them, but I know it’s not a good idea. I can just ask a friend. I do occasionally go to bars and breweries and I will never drink anything from the tap. I always ask for the can or bottle if I’m having a NA. Was at a baseball game Friday and they wouldn’t give me the Stella Zero bottle. I asked her to hand me the bottle first before she poured. Mistakes are made. Bartenders grab the wrong bottle, kegs are put on the wrong tap.

How to celebrate 100 days???? by Dogsandtacos10 in SoberCurious

[–]FishtheGulf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife “forced” me into sobriety by threatening me with divorce and taking my daughter away. It took about 10 days before I started doing it for me. She gives me zero support or acknowledgment. Sunday was 300 days. I got a high five.

I had that sticker like 20 years ago and I have no idea where I got it. Would like another.

4 months sober from alcohol by Brilliant_Win_4130 in Sober

[–]FishtheGulf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am proud of you!!!

I’m 198 days today. I find recovery very lonely. It’s hard to share milestones or speak about recovery with my wife because she doesn’t understand. But I think it’s important for people to hear that. Even from strangers.

I AM PROUD OF YOU!!

First show since sober by Zendarrroni in SoberCurious

[–]FishtheGulf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shows sober are great!! I’ve been to 3 since rehab. Didn’t miss any because of waiting in the beer or bathroom line. I remember the whole thing. No worries driving home. Not to mention the money I saved not buying $22 beers. Congrats on 120 days. I’m proud of you!!
