With extra rainbows and unicorns.Besides, didn't Jamil or somebody make a 25% beer already?

but did it taste good?That's the ultimate in snobbery. If I knew anyone who paid $600 for a bottle of beer, I'd kick them in the nuts.Besides, didn't Jamil or somebody make a 25% beer already?

What if George did it?That's the ultimate in snobbery. If I knew anyone who paid $600 for a bottle of beer, I'd kick them in the nuts.

I killed my bottle of 2003 in, uh 2004. Got it for a b-day present and it dint last long. Probly shoulda cellared it a few years first huh? I have to agree with Basser, a big meh. I bet with some oxidative aging it will be cats ass in a few years though.Yipes, I've got a 2003 bottle sitting unopened on my bar I received as a wedding gift. For $600, I might just have to put it on the market.

My guess is I would feel the same way - I'm not impressed by high ABVs. If someone gave me a bottle for $10 I'd try it.I was totally underwhelmed by Utopias.Tasted like maple brandy.It was a big "Meh"MolBasser

Have either of those beers made it on a top 100 list?If it's anything like the Triple Bock was, that will be the most expensive gag inducer ever.

Samiclaus? Used to be the highest ABV at one time. I think it is liquid sex. Had a chance to have some '96 earlier this summer. Best liquid I have ever consumed.I've had a bunch of these huge alcohol beers. None of them were any good.

I am just about positive I saw it at Julio's last time I was out there. Table and Vine next to me has plenty. Last year when I went to buy some, there were some dusty 4 packs in the back of the shelf, so I got the last of the 2007. good stuff. $22 per 4 pack, but a lot better value than $600/liter, or even $125/liter when I was gifted my Utopias. The brewery castle in eggenberg I believe has been brewing it since 1998? at the new location, when I had the '96 I also tried some '01, and it was night and day, not sure if it was the brewery or the oxidation and cellaring, but even my '07 was heavenly.Ironically it now says "the world's most extraordinary beer" on the label, not sure but it seems like it may have used to read "strongest" instead.Never had it.
