canned drink with highest AV

[Gorn]

I had the original version back before it got banned. Never again though. Here’s a story.

I work for a public safety department at a local university. One day a underage kid got himself caught with a couple, so we made him dump it out in the parking lot. The are where he dumped it out smelled for a couple days and the area was SPOTLESS. So if it did that to a parking lot, who knows what it did to someone’s insides.

That could be problematic.

This is the highest ABV beer I can remember. 17.5%

This whole thread is letting me know what to absolutely avoid. I like good beer and good whisky. Falling down? Not so much.

OK, i'll ask: why?

Why? I live near the beach, canned drinks are easier to deal with when we are there. I don't like having to drink 4 cans of beer to get relaxed. Plus we cant have glass containers on the beach.

There's whiskey in the world and there are empty iced tea bottles in the world. Just sayin...

If you can find "port" in a can, that's the one!
The rot-gut wines at the local convenience store would probably qualify, but they're in bottles.

You can always get decent wine in a can. I like to bring one to the beach and split it with a friend.

Don't forget 19th century physicians. If there one thing I leaned from John Watson, it's that there's no ailment what can't be cured by a mouthful of brandy.

I can't remember the brand but I had an Eisenbach around 13%. I think there are higher beers, but not in a can or a store.

 

[the_home]

Weyerbacher has quite a lot that's 11% to 13%+ that is actually drinkable.

If the acid content of a glass of soda pop was given intravenously it would kill you.

Good heavens why doesn't it have a warning label? It should be even bigger than MAY CONTAIN GMOs.

If you drink to much water it will kill you.

fair enough

not the highest ABV, but in that situation a couple of cans of around 8% IPA would be nice cold beach drinking and would certainly relax me.

There are many things that would
kill you if given intravenously. The acidic content of soda isn’t unique. And I wasn’t talking about intravenous injection of alcohol beverages, so... ok?

You were talking of not drinking ''pavement cleaner'' on account of not needing your insides ''cleaned''. Acid is the active part in the pavement cleaner. Alcohol by the by.

All the way at the South end of the Ocean City Boardwalk is a place called The Frog Bar. They have a local beer that is just over 14%. I think it comes from Wye Oak Brewery.

I enjoy Belgian Tripel style ales, and strong British 'real' ales, but sometimes things can get just too much.. I tend to stop in the 7s, and only occasionally venture into the 9s for a good stout or porter, but on the whole the ABV is not why I'm drinking beer.

I once (a long time ago in a kingdom far, far away) bought a litre bottle (plastic, naturally) of a German beer. Was going to watch my friend's band rehearse. It left me almost blind. Silly.

I remember when I was a teen on the UK all the old soaks would drink "barley wine" - which was in 11% range. They were incoherent come dinner time.
