Breaking Dry July
The final day of Dry July is upon us, the waiting is almost over.
Dry July has been long… and a little arduous, but for a great cause.
The fallout of my commitment to this cause is that I am approx 1kg lighter, 1cm slimmer, $100ish richer, no longer the Foursquare Mayor of Galbraith’s and adults living with cancer are $300.00 better off.
Admittedly the effect on my waistline could’ve been larger had I not substituted beer with lollies during the first two weeks. Sugar filled beverages probably weren’t the best alternative either if losing weight was a goal I was aiming for.
Anyway, Dry July is pretty much all wrapped up and I’m looking forward to the break party. Here’s a snap shot of my beer fridge.
In case you were wondering; no, I don’t plan on drinking all of these tomorrow. But I do have my eye on that Epic Hop Zombie.
All you other Dry Julyers; what are you planning for your breaking drink tomorrow?

Well done champ! I totally failed Dry July this year I promise to try harder in 2014, we’ll try to organise some cool stuff for teetotalers throughout the month
Went around to Chris’ at midnight to help him break the spell, starting at about 3 seconds past midnight, he smashed down a Croucher Pils, a Mikes OMPA and followed up with… yep… a HOP ZOMBIE. Bet he’s feeling it this morning

haha, Good call @Michael.
Yeah it’s pretty tough @Dan. I think next year I’ll opt for the give generously option instead. BTW thanks for your donation, it’s pretty cool hearing where the money goes on BeerIQ’s blog – http://beeriq.wordpress.com/2013/07/24/dry-july/
