   Hm. Your list is garbage as far as refuting the idea that Americans drink pisswater - how many of these beers you gonna find on tap ANYWHERE?

   Sorry, but this Canadian sez youse is all wussies still. Hi alchohol bews from teeny tiny assed microbreweries or niche market specialty beers do not a nation of real men make.

   I’d ALSO like to point out that 3 out of your 5 top beers are Canadian :evil grin:

   Good list with some truly great beers. I’m surprised that a couple of Dogfish Head beers didn’t make it though. The Worldwide Stout and 120 Minute IPA both are over 20%.

   Actually Nøgne Ø Dark Horizon first edition is out of production, but they have produced a second edition which is 17,50% and are planning a third edition for release in 2010

7. Rob on January 16th, 2009 5:17 am
   

   I agree with Russell and above. When I first started reading the list I was sure Dogfish Head’s 120 min IPA was going to make the list.

   This beer is one of the best strong beers out there.

   Not nearly a complete list. But one of my favorites is semi-local and great tasting. Good place to stop when dirt-biking or hunting too.

    Wow, lots of San Diego beers on here: Stone, Lost Abbey, AleSmith, Pizza Port and Alpine (that I recognized just skimming through the list). Most pubs/bars/restaurants down here have at least one local microbrew on tap, and it’s not uncommon for bars to not have Coors/Miller/Bud on tap… “Fizzy Yellow Beer is for Wussies”

    …and btw, Sam Adams Triple Bock taste like soy sauce, but it’s still cool to see a major brewer doing experimental brews.
11. Neil Harner on January 16th, 2009 2:15 pm
    

    You forgot about the world’s strongest beer… Sam Adams Utopias.

    http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/samuel-adams-utopias/12228/

    27% ABV - Released every 2 Years - Easily $300-$400 per bottle on Ebay. Now that there sir is American ingenuity at its finest. And did I mention, it tastes like heaven.
12. Leechmo on January 16th, 2009 2:33 pm
    

    the main problem with this list is that strong != good (aside from the fact that you totally undermine your point by including so many foreign beers.) Most of these beers taste like they’ve been mixed with corn syrup (I’m sorry to say that I’ve had several on the list). By and large, the myth around weak american beer comes from laws requiring beer above 5% to be called ‘Malt Liquor’, which the rest of the world doesn’t understand just means ’strong beer’ - when they hear ‘malt liquor’ they all just picture a redneck straight out of Deliverance with his hooch of choice, so the only ‘beer’ in the US is weak.

    How you could have missed a bunch!! EKU, and about 3 Sam Adams beers. Hell the strongest beer in the world is a Sam Adams!!! Utopias–27..thats right 27% alcohol!!!!! Drinks more like a cognac than a beer!! It is sold every 3 yrs..and yes 2009 is one of those years!!! It is $100 for 24 ozs though..and bottle is pure copper made to look like the copper kettle it is cooked in…Man I think a little more research is needed here!

    what about dogfish head world wide stout
    http://www.dogfish.com/brewings/Occasional_Rarities/World_Wide_Stout/17/index.htm

    one year it was said to be 27% but they’ve since dropped it to ~18%
20. nda on January 19th, 2009 12:13 pm
    

    This list is missing Samiclaus (http://www.internetwines.com/rws28827.html), which is delicious and also hits like a cement truck. Hard to find, but grab one if you see em, it’s well worth a taste.
21. Chris on January 19th, 2009 1:56 pm
    

    Yeah man, you completely missed some great Dogfish beers that are stronger than anything you have listed.
22. Jason Bartholme on January 19th, 2009 2:13 pm
    

    It’s a shame that Sam Adam’s Triple Bock tastes absolutely horrible. We have a local brewpub around here that makes a blueberry bourbon ale that will knock you for a loop. I’m pretty sure it’s over 10%.
23. Walker on January 19th, 2009 2:14 pm
    

    Boulevard Sixth Glass - 11.5%
24. nobeerhere on January 19th, 2009 2:31 pm
    

    I have never really found a need for beer. 90% of them taste awful to me, and they are all weak. That is, in comparison to a good liquor.

    Devil Dancer???? your list is nice but incomplete!
26. Yom on January 19th, 2009 2:49 pm
    

    You’re all pansies. To a straight whiskey drinker, proclamations of manliness among beer drinkers sound like the buzzing of flies around a trash can. Try some Old Grandad’s 114 or Booker’s, and don’t be afraid if your chest should start to itch; that’s hair spouting out.
27. Radam on January 19th, 2009 4:12 pm
    

    Good list David, always going to be a few omissions such as Samiclaus…but, to reiterate what others have said, Dogfish Head is a GLARING omission (and I’m not just saying that because I was a bartender there). Dogfish is the best beer made in the US of A; strong, well balanced and flavorful and always pushing the envelope (ok, maybe I am a tiny bit impartial).

    Cheers!

    Since you’re trying to make a point about American beers, I’d suggest you remove the 16 non-American beers and replace them with the Sam Adams and Dogfish Head options mentioned above, and others that are missing.
32. Seymour Totti on January 19th, 2009 5:15 pm
    

    Alcohol content alone does not equal great beer. It needs body, flavour, finnish and, if possible, a hot barmaid.

    They are generally terrible session beers since they reduce you to incomprehensible babbling too early into the session (and the hot barmaid tends to stay down the other end of the bar out of arms reach).

    Strong beers are good when you just have the one to accompany a good steak; my favourite session beers rarely get above 7-8% ABV.

    As for your list; sadly I can’t get any of them in this part of the world so I can’t comment
33. Ted on January 19th, 2009 5:15 pm
    

    “Best part of the list is, that you can actually buy most of these mouth-watering beers”

    The first beer on your list has only been brewed 3 times, and not in the past 10 years.

    Some of the others I’ve tried looking up don’t seem to exist any more, either.

    The idea is good, but it would be nice if there was a “this beer actually exists” column.
34. Beer Glosher on January 19th, 2009 5:52 pm
    

    This list is missing some VERY important beers by Unibroue, available in the US through QFC markets typically. Some of the beers

    La 11 - 11%
    La Terrible - 10.5%
    Fringante - 10%

    Unibroue is known for hard-hitting beers. Even their lesser Maudite or Fin Du Monde are enough.
35. frankdawg on January 19th, 2009 6:08 pm
    

    So f’ing what - you can’t find any of these to decide if they are any good or just ABC.
36. Mike on January 19th, 2009 6:08 pm
    

    Yea, I would say there are many different beers missed and you listing some foreign beers doesn’t really help either. Let’s face it there are many different micro-brews out there and many of them produce a beer that is 10% plus. Anyone, saying that American’s beers are weak just has been drinking piss-water for the past few years and needs to be educated :).

    On another note I find it funny that the picture you used for this post has very few (if any) beers that are actually on the list.

38. G00dB33r on January 19th, 2009 6:29 pm
    

    Over half of the top-rated 200 beers on BeerPal are American made (112). Many of the top-rated beers have a high alcohol content (67 of 200 >/= 10%). There are some beers with high abv that do not rate well, so not counting those, there are 44 American made beers with abv >/= 10% in the BeerPal top 200. I am sure you can easily find 16 to replace the non-US beers on your list.

41. hugh on January 19th, 2009 8:20 pm
    

    not one Aussie beer!!? im sure we make something over 10%

    We do!

    Grand Ridge Supershine

    This silky smooth, multiple gold medal winning, scoth ale/barley wine, is believed to be the strongest bottled beer made in Australia. Rich and syrupy, the nose offers notes of treacle, molasses and herb with distinctive cashew nut and toast characters. Best sipped after dinner to compliment a rich fruit dessert or vintage cheeses. It is best enjoyed as a finale after tasting the full range of Grand Ridge beers.

    Alcohol %: 11%
    Brewery: Grand Ridge Brewery
    Country: Australia
    Type: Barley Wine

    @ Tyler: I work at the Judge’s Bench in Ellicott City, Maryland and we’ve had quite a few of these beers on tap (we have seventeen taps). Those we couldn’t put on tap, we got in bottles. Down the street is the Phoenix Emporium with no taps, but around 100 bottles. Also, about ten miles away in Baltimore you can find Max’s on Broadway with somewhere in the neighborhood of 40+ constantly rotating taps and a selection of hundreds of bottles. So, before you go badmouthing the states, put down your Moosehead, pull your hockey stick out of your ass and try a visit.

52. Tommie on January 20th, 2009 6:48 am
    

    The problem with american beer is NOT alcohol strength. The problem is that the beer that is commonly associated with america (Budweiser) is crap in taste, color and everything. There are good american beers and the correlation between alcohol strength and manliness just simply does not exist. Real men, in my humble opinion, drink whatever they like, even if that means drinks with umbrellas, and tell people who tell them otherwise to simply f**k off.

    American beer is, due to Buds dominance in the global mind, underestimated. I like quite a few of the beers you guys have. But alcohol strength is not something I look for.

    Cheers.

    The list is great but you are not going to find over 90% of this list anywhere except for special events. It took me the last 3 years or so to try pretty much everything on this list and its been a great time. Beer is a great hobby and time waster.

    Also you forgot one of my favorites Goose Islands Bourbon County Stout!

56. Dave on January 20th, 2009 2:40 pm
    

    sad. American beer is leading a revolution in artisanal brewing, and all you can think to hype is how drunk you can get??? get a clue and learn to TASTE your beer (which is why BudMillCoors suck - the taste ranges between nonexistent and lousy).

    It´s not all about the % of alcohol. It´s about the body, the color, the smell and of course the taste, that´s why american beers are really poor. If you want alcohol and get knocked down why don´t you just drink a bottle of tequila. Drinking a good beer must be a good experiencie and there´s a lot more things about drinking beer than just get wasted.

    But what you are totally missing, is the so called Nockherberg in Munich. It is the best known “Strong Beer Party” in the world. You might not get the strongest beer there, but one of the best in the very best atmosphere you can think of for enjoying your strong beer.

    Most of us i mean Turkish guys adre regular Efes Beer in a botle. But they make a lot of differnt types in difference tastes. Most of the guys don like the other types but i do like the.

    For example Efes Dark whis has a caramelly taste, and now the new one Efes Dark with Coffee. it my sound weird to hear coffee and beer in the same sentence but it sure tastes good for me.

    and i do like the taste of ojuszko or something like that in Croatia.

    What i fail to understand is the whole competition. Sure there is huge differences…but the idea is the same. To call someone a wuss because they drink a different beer…is well..stupid and asinine. I drink a beer from time to time…and generally its never the same beer. i drink for the experience of trying a new brew, not to find the most alchohol content in a bottle and slam it. Beer shouldve always been held in the same quality as the fine wines of the world. Those who dont…are pathetic. A beer can be bold, yet smooth, bitter yet have a sweet aftertaste…much like our fine wines. why hold it in any other respect? The rest of the world holds beer in a higher respect, yet us americans still hold to our “get plastered as fast as possible and do stupid crap” ideals. Until that changes…i dont see us drinking anything but formaldehyde flavored hops.

    I’d add Momba, from the Ivory Coast. Tasty and strong.

    Good list, but a lot of these aren’t American. It truly is a shame that we are viewed as a nation of “diet” beer drinkers. Beer is one of the most delicious, versatile and complex delights one can consume and should be celebrated and explored, not some half water concoction solely consumed to get frat boys drunk.

    No Dogfish Head? Are you fucking kidding me? This list is garbage.

    And there’s the Bluegrass Brewing Company’s Jefferson Reserve “Big Guy.” That one comes in at around 20% and tastes like bourbon.

    And my first thoughts were the two Dogfish Head brews, but the crowd seems to have jumped all over that omission already.

    You MUST not be from the east coast since you missed out on ALL of the amazing Dogfish Head beers not just the oft-mentioned 120 IPA, which is over 20% when brewed (but is best when you let it sit for a year) but the dearly beloved and now hard-to-find Raison d’Extra (18%+), Fort (17%+), Palo Santo (12%) The Immort Ale (11% or 12%), Theobroma (10%), Black & Blue (10%), and the Red and White (10%).

    Firkin breweries in the UK used to do an called Dogbolter, at 14% it pissed over many of these beers.
    Also in Cornwall, there’s a brewery called Steam. They produce a cider at 12%, a bitter at 14%, and a lager at 22%.
    The good thing about living in Cornwall is that Steam Cider is served in schools, where at the age of 9, every pupil is expected to be able to down 6 pints of the lovely stuff whilst the register (roll call) is taken in the mornings. Those who continually fail the task have to lick the floors of the classroom clean every day for a week until they are able to down the 6 pints.

     In Poland we have beer called “Karpackie” which has 14.9 %

     I have seen some of these on tap. Some states (Utah) have retarded laws that limit the alcohol content of beer on tap. I hate blue laws. Fuck blue laws! Fuck political correctness!

     Philadelphia is a massive and amazing beer city, and its sadly true to say that most Americans do drink fizzy light yellow piss beer.

     55 Beers That Will Knock You Flat On Your Ass…

     We’ve all heard the myth that American beer is weak and not for “Real” men but I am here to tell you that that is COMPLETE crap….

     Where is Stone’s Ruination IPA or Green flaw WC? Dogfish Heads 120 minute IPA is 20% ABV and one nice brew to boot. Whrre are they?
106. samueL on May 18th, 2009 10:08 am
     

     big city grille boston, mass. over 100 diff. beers on tap and somewhere around 300 for their bottled selection. I mean the damn menu is like 30 pages long itself. (I kno, I stole me one last time I was there) by far best bar ever check it out if anyone ever can.

     I don’t get it, this list is to reassure the world that American beer is not what Europeans and the rest of the world finds weak and wussy like, but this list that you’ve created is filled with beer from other countries, not just America, and worth mentioning that 3 of your top 5 are Canadian Beer. What say you?
108. Bob O on July 16th, 2009 4:31 pm
     

     I sayeth that Canada, in the words of Homer Simpson, “is USA Junior”.
