I can't wait to do a keg stand with this.

I really wish people would stop doing this.

Quick, someone go soak some barley in ethanol!

Bring a case of this to your next family barbecue & find out how strong your love for each other really is.

The brewery created Snake Venom after fans deemed Armageddon "too weak" when it debuted in 2012.

Probably because tests have been done that suggest its actual ABV isn't even close to the listed one.

Why do UK breweries doing American styles all rely on stupid gimmicks and "edgy" marketing?

Because it got BrewDog a TV show.

Because they cant make any good beer than anyone would actually want to buy and drink, so they have to do stupid things like this to get the publicity and hope to drive sales.

Man, only 67.5%? ******* amateurs.

Has to be delicious, right?

This "arms race" to highest abv is retarded.

I'm just gonna pour a little Zhukov into some high proof single barrel bourbon and call it beer. At least that would taste better than this freeze distilled gimmicky crap.

 

[boogercrack]

to me, beers like this ("world's strongest beer", etc) are like going to the state fair and seeing the stand selling the "world's largest egg roll". at first, it seems wonderful and something you should be all about, because ****, it's the world's largest egg roll. i need this inside me. half way through consuming it, the realization occurs that this is just grease and some ******** ass cabbage. you'll never forget this experience however, once you've gotten on the Vortex.

but you know... with beer or something.

Wake me up when someone makes a beer with 105% alcohol.

First person to Intihar this gets my undying affection.


And a hell of a hospital bill

First person to Intihar this 2 bottles of this gets my undying affection.

High ABV or no, an Intiharing must be a proper Intiharing.

Stupid. I had Tactical Nuclear Penguin yesterday and that stuff was horrible. Just way too strong for what I want in a beer, and that's only half the ABV of this. The smell was so potent it was unenjoyable.

****** taste aside, it's only 275ml, or 5.5 "shots". About 9 "drinks" after accounting for the extra alcohol.

Intiharing a 15% 750ml, as has been done many times, is a little over 6 "drinks".

It's certainly doable...

What if they told you it tasted like peppermint schnapps?

 

[stupac2]

Someone ran the ABV and the previous one of these wasn't even close to 65%: http://www.reddit.com/r/beer/comments/1pjper/swedish_chemist_brewmeister_lies_about_abv/

I can't say I'm surprised.

(minimum) 22oz vessel filled to the top. More than 1 bottle would be needed.
