OK guys, just wanted to give a quick and final update. After agitating the bottles and sticking them next to a radiator for a week, they seemed to carb up some more and get to the point where they are quite drinkable. If I had gotten the FG down a few more points and carbed it a little higher, I think this would actually be a great beer. I noticed that this yeast was slow to finish fermenting, so I am going to assume that this is also the reason why it was very slow to carb (on top of the 9.2% abv). I will most likely add some extra yeast when bottling next time to speed things along.
