I wonder how much it would cost to get the ABV lab-tested. Given the highly experimental nature of this beast, be interesting to know where it landed.
... the tried and true 'light it on fire' trick.

The methanol topic has been brought up and debunked on this thread a couple of times.
I don't see it as a problem. I know I am way over-simplifying it but the way I get my brain around it is by asking how much methanol is in a normal " high ABV " beer? I then ask myself if I would die from methanol poisoning if I drank a few of those beers quickly. I doubt it. I don't see the difference here between drinking a couple high ABV beers and concentrating one into triple strength.
Needs moar pics!
Wow, so I just jumped into this thread and took way too much time reading probably 50% of the posts and have to say this is awesome! I'll admit, the first time I read about concentrating beer through freezing I thought about something like this just to see how it worked but never had the balls to go through with it. Way to go!

One little note... that pic is a little deceiving because it looks a little like one big chunk and it isn't at all. The sides froze up first only because, I think, the bag gave the ice crystals blahblahblah

I laud your effort. It's important to read the whole thread though, to fully appreciate that it is a miracle that Cape actually was able to pull it off. In fact he is likely lying. We'll have to get confirmation from one of his fellow Massholes before we can sign off on the project.

I dunno about you, but with all the crap I've been talking if Cape sent me a little brown bottle I'm sure as hell not going to drink whatever's inside
