That 14.5% alcohol is high, but there is a beer brewed here in the USA that is 17.5% called Samuel Adams Triple Bock beer. Said to be more like a port wine, it is not even available for sale in 14 of the 50 states. But even that high percentage is wimpy compared to this overbrewed gem: Brewmeister Armageddon
Brewer's Description:
The world’s strongest beer at 65%. Ingredients include crystal malt, wheat, flaked oats and of course 100% Scottish spring water. We then freeze ferment the beer to bring up the ABV (Alcohol By Volume). Consume this like a fine whisky. Despite being 65%, the beer has a lot of flavour - malty, hoppy, slightly sweet and lots of yeast still in the beer. Be careful though, smelling it is probably enough to put you over the limit!
I think Armageddon is the proper name for that beer.

That must be the latest try by that wonderful Scottish brewery called Brewdog, in their continuing battle to beat the Germans. One of their earlier attempts was called Sink the Bismarck and they also have a beer called Nuclear Penguin. These guys have a sense of humour!
One of the bigger customers of the company I work for, so I am not allowed to say anything negative about them ;-)
Mike - we should serve this for refreshments at our meetings. I'll bet the auction afterward would really get exciting. It would be priceless, over the top.
