According to the label, this is one how responds to, "Valar Morghalis" (cited earlier).  I still have not seen an episode but owing to a desire to be able to hold my end of a conversation at gatherings I have begun to watch television that is not news or sports or the Food Channel and I eagerly await Young Drunk Punk or Schitt's Creek inspired beers.
