Yeeha... too bad that Sam Triple runs $5 per 8oz bottle... which actually isn't such a bad deal when I think about it. 

I've only had 1 beer from his list, Stones 'Double Bastard' - anyone else get into this list?

[Triple J]

Only 1 Barley Wine?  Seems just about every one made should be on the list.

I've had these three:

The Abyss   11.00%   USA   Deschutes Brewery, Inc.
Pliny The Younger   11.00%   USA   Russian River Brewing Company
Imperial Stout   11.00%   USA   Rogue Ales Brewery / Brewer's on the Bay

But that list didn't have:

Doggie Claws

or

Bourbon County Stout is awesome - I highly recommend. 

Also very good: Expedition Stout and HopSlam.

Same here.

But after my experience with Double Bastard... I have a new "To-Do" list!

When I used to beable to drink without getting a Migraine I had some pretty good beer . I can't remember the whole name of it but it ended in Oatmeal Stout.

Anyone know what the full name of what I might be talking about ?   Dolph

There are hundreds of oatmeal stouts out there. It's just one of many varieties of stout.

Fin du Monde (end of the world) by Unibroue only weighs in at 9.x%, but I can assure you it's name does not lie.  They also make a beer called La Terrible that has 10 something percent, but I've never found it around here.

Thanks wark, I didn't find the brand listed . I do remember buying it at an Anderson's store in Reynolsburg , Ohio in around the mid to later '90s.    Dolph

I think beers over 10% are a little much, anyway. No real drinkability for something I normally use as a water/juice/soft drink/wine substitute with a meal.

The title is as these are for sipping with strong food, and will only "knock you on your ass" if you drink them like they're on tap...

+1 on Fin du Monde.
And have you ever had Delirium Tremens? (the beer  )

I have had the Sam Adams triple bock.  It was like drinking soy sauce.  I really like dark, strong beers and this didn't resemble anything I like.  Beyond the taste-stain it leaves, the lack of carbonation was weird too.

St. Bernardus Abt 12  is The Bizness.  Love that beer.

The Maredsous-es are a glaring omission on this list, as are a lot of the exported Belgian beers.  Chimay, Duvel, Kwak etc will all kick le ass.

Anything that ends in Grand Cru is devil juice as far as I am concerned.  I once *split* a six pack of Celis GC (miss that brewery) with an ex girlfriend and nearly got kicked out of college.  Picture me popping open my first of three or four bottles of delicious insanity drink, taking a sip and nodding appreciatively at the full body, complex top notes.  Fast forward to me doing donuts on a campus parking lot, storming into my print lab, trashing it, and leaving evidence and swath of destruction for my very kind TA to clean and cover up for me the next morning.  I also remember listening to a lot of Bon Jovi.   Caveat drinkor is what I am saying.

Stone Brewing is my all time favorite next to Deschutes
