You can take that refrigerator and make a walk-in cooler out of it. I’m sure insulation board, some fans, etc could get you to that point. But, that would be very inefficient. Still would be cool though.

Prairie Artisan Ales bottles are always $8-12. Sometimes, I think the price is crazy to help draw hype. Jester King has been putting out $20-25 bombers for some time and they sell out every time. They even do a lottery system now. Some are worth it, some not.
