I'd like to try making snakebite with this then down a pint of it, get up off the floor and try and do some complicated dance moves.

You sir are a bad mutha. (looks up snakebite, so as to better commune with the gag) . Oh so you cut it with cider, good idea. Unfortunately now you're less of a bad mutha than I thought you were. ;-]

dogfishhead 120 minute IPA is 21% and it tastes pretty good, but it blasts you with hops.

this isn't a far cry from 21%, could be good maybe?

boy have you got a lot to learn about snakebite. CUT it with Cider?? more like augment with Cider.... I don't actally drink it but Snakebite is one of the more economical ways to get extremely drunk extremely quickly. The Cider seems to kind of react with the beer to produce a stronger drink. You should try it....

sounds awful. i'll take my beer as max 5%.

hrmm, perhaps it goes along with that line about mixing your drinks. Cause really, empirically, i don't buy the line that mixing cider with beer makes it stronger. Perhaps it is that people drinking snakebite tend to rush their drinks down, so getting hammered more quickly and then attributing their state of heightened inebriation to the beer and cider combination.

maybe.

I say this because i was reading, whilst researching snakebite, about how bar tenders in brisbane would tell patrons that the two drinks cause some kind of magical fermentation that powers up the beverage. Which of course would be impossible. And this is the only line i can find that is used in support of this idea.

anyway, i'll stop rambling and go to bed .. good night ;]

i had Piraat and Gulden Draak last night and i was telling people they're strong. fucking hell

Tried beers from this company before. They taste like Special Brew

i heard the stuff makes you hallucinate. look, the bird thinks theres a person in front of him

"This is an extremely strong beer; it should be enjoyed in small servings and with an air of aristocratic nonchalance. In exactly the same manner that you would enjoy a fine whisky, a Frank Zappa album or a visit from a friendly yet anxious ghost."

fucking lol, me too

i'm surprised nobody's commented on the name - Tactical Nuclear Penguin - sounds like a new Snares track.... I can just hear John Peel announcing it:

"and that was Tactical Nuclear Penguin by Venetian Snares....."

*pours one out for john peel*

well, the Eku is a truly nice beer (& pretty strong)

that's some qualitat seit

I have tasted a lot of BrewDogs stuff... a lot of it is pretty good. They brew a pretty mean stout and their IIPA's aren't too shabby either. I'm pretty sure this wont taste like shit since they are a brewer whom know what they are doing and know how to conceal the alcohol.

how do they conceal the alcohol?

how can I get this in America?

Just as they do with mixed drinks... with flavor. They'll either use, depending on the style of beer, coffee, chocolate, hops, barley, sour cherries, fruit or any assortment of ingredients... could be anything really.... hard to say really until I try it. It'll probably be a stout of some sort and it's going to be amazing for aging.

It'll probably be available in short supply at any of your local micro brew suppliers. There are about 4 shops within driving distance that I can get brewdogs stuff.
