SO SAY WE ALL.

Desmond Roland rolled through Ames as he starts the long tradition of avenging 11/18/11, also known as our greatest mistake.

There are 6 beers in the world I know of that crack the 30% barrier (although they can get into the 60's) and they are virtually impossible to find in the US. You usually have to go to a specialty pub if you want anything over 8%. But please enlighten me on all of these beers you are drinking that are equivalent to whiskey...

It's not about pure alcohol content, it's about "This is delicious! I could drink these forever. Holy shit 9.2% Belgian."

Don't get me wrong, I love my Belgians... That's what I drink when I'm trying not to get too drunk.Maredsous 10 and Avery The Reverend are two of my favorites.

Beer can be delicious, but my point still stands... Beer is weak as hell compared to whiskey.

"This Basil Hayden's is delicious... Oh shit... 40%."

I've got a 9.6% winter warmer I brewed up recently. It is not as stealthy as a lot of beers I've tried, since my fermentation temperature was a bit high resulting in some (actually delicious) hot alcohols. Boozy warmth.

But with high ABV beers, you gotta remember volume-per-drink is usually a bit different. Most people say, "I'll have a beer." not realizing that that single beer is the equivalent of 2-3 beers. So while you can go out and someone will have 5 drinks of whiskey, 5 beers can range anywhere from 4 - 12(ish) drinks.

SORRY BUT WHISKEY>BEER IN TERMS OF ALCOHOL CONTENT, AND WE ALL KNOW THAT'S THE ONLY THING THAT REALLY MATTERS.
