What's your favorite Beer?

I guess I have @scooter to thank for the cans of Untitled Art cans in my package from IH?.. Thanks a lot, you lovely bastard!..
You're welcome, Eli. You had shown interest in the brand, and knowing their limited distribution, I took the initiative to get some to you. Enjoy!
My checked bag was a thing of beauty…
You needn't feel worse. Believe me when I say, there was a substantial amount of beer flowing in Gosport.

I’ve sworn off fags until next summer and beer for a week after my party weekend. The fags are no sweat, but I’ve just dropped £1000 on root canal work after a 2 hour 30 min session at the dentists. I was told it would be £400. There will be beer tonight.
Ooh! A punch to the wallet, and the mouth! Ouch! I'd be lining up the beers, as well. Take care, my friend.

Yikes. £1000 for a root canal?
Coincidentally, I chipped a molar a few weeks back eating a pistachio and will have to get a crown which is gonna set me back $500+.

It was a bit more complicated than that. It was a job done poorly about 13 years ago that he had to open it up, and clean out. There was quite a lot of crap there that shouldn’t have been. Add a CT scan into the equation and off you go. Also, this is Norway.
Anyhoo, shit happens, I’m not dwelling on it. Onwards and upwards.

In the States that CT would be anywhere from $800 to $1800 or more. Because we're dopes.

Apologies in advance for the thread rot. Especially as I didn’t even drink the beer last night.
Dental work doesn’t come under our impressive welfare state system after the age of 18 so what I paid was full price. That the price was around the lower middle end of the range you quote is a pleasant surprise, in as far as having to pay someone for spending two hours in your mouth with power tools can ever be described as pleasant.
Beer on Friday, I promise.

@neph93 hope you’re feeling alright bud. The phrase “insult to injury” might have been coined for dental work.

DEAR LAWD my STC-1000 (external temperature controller, it keeps my fridges at around 12C°/ 55F) was playing up… Thought it had croaked, but re-set all parameters and it's working again...
Problem is: I didn't really keep track of it during summer, and it must have been playing up for a while now, cause I have a lot of mildew inside... Luckily it isn't too full so it won't take too long cleaning it out...
On the plus side: it made me look at (other) pre-wired temp controllers, and I've seen (better) ones at half the price I paid for mine... So even if they do break, I know it won't be an expensive fix...
Ok... /end beernerd rant...

Cheers @scooter I have to say this is bloody good stuff. Hot Ingrid had sip and even she loves it. She also surmised it would last me all night though, so what does she know…
Excellent choice. I'm happy you, and Hot Ingrid enjoyed it.
I love that stuff. At 9% ABV, it won't hit you like a BBA stout. But, it's so damned tasty, one could polish off a 4-pack, without batting eyelash. As a matter of fact, I believe I did, once. There's a night I can't quite remember.

I followed it up with this.
Solid af. Proper impy stout, perfect balance of heat, sweetness, dryness and mouthfeel. And for 12%ABV not too aggressive, and certainly not sickly. I’m sort of glad you can’t get it over here. I’d be all over it, all the time.
