p3lb0x:
Ralf apparently. In my honest opinion I couldnt care less about how high the percentage of alcohol is for its the taste that matters

I've had beer that was either 25% or 27% --- I forget now as it was so long ago. But it was from Belgium, and yes... It was pure evil! :rip: :onfire: :stars:

Reading the article:
Sam Adams Utopias MMII, which goes on sale this month, is in fact 24% alcohol by volume, making it the strongest commercial beer in the world.

Not a doubt there. The beer I had was in the "Vintages" section of the liquor store. Most likely a small batch and not really what you'd call "commercial" in the sense of mass production.
I couldn't drink the stuff. I split it with 2 other people!
Ralf Maximus:
Read any of the comments on the beer forum at the original link? They're split between "that's gotta taste nasty" and "meh"... kind of like here. And that's a BEER forum.
I have no idea what sick game Sam Adams is playing at. A 24% alcohol product would be something you'd expect from the Gomez Addams brewery, but whatever... clearly there's a market for it since all the 21% beer got snatched up before.
Personally, my interest tops out well below 7% since thats when it starts tasting like beer with a dash of solvent.
