Tactical Nuclear Penguin (world's strongest beer)

[Obev]

"This is an extremely strong beer; it should be enjoyed in small servings and with an air of aristocratic nonchalance. In exactly the same manner that you would enjoy a fine whisky, a Frank Zappa album or a visit from a friendly yet anxious ghost."

A beer that references Frank Zappa on the label is definitely worth my time.

I tried ordering 2 bottles. They wanted $186 for two 12 ounce bottles. No thanks.

[Conformity]

Someone call serif he will drink it

[Arcana]

I Should try it, im heading to Edinburgh sometime near the new year if not for Hogmanay so im sure that one of those will take the bitter chill of the scottish air.

or leave me passed out in princes street in a pool of my own piss. depends how the night goes.

When I drink beer, I drink it for the taste. This shit is pretty much just another hard liquor IMO, and when I want hard liquor, I'll crack open some Wiser's De Luxe.

[Cantih]

Tactical nuclear penguin? Is the owner a Disgaea fan or something?

Well, in the video, one of their penguin costumes was badtz-maru.

[Maxxthepenguin]

Beer shouldn't be stronger than 8%.

Anything above that is just silly.

Go die in a fucking fire.

I'll be enjoying my Mad Elf, thank you very much.

Anyone that just writes Sam Adams off as just another American beer without trying it has their head shoved way up their European ass.

That being said, yes I would definitely want to try it just to say I drank Tactical Nuclear Penguin.

I'm not a fan of the Boston Lager, but some of their others are pretty nice. Bitches love the Cherry Wheat.

hmm, Only $57.80 per bottle, before shipping, based on current currency rates.

$60?! Can't you just pour Everclear into your beer of choice?

[Cantih]

Wouldn't that mess up the taste?

I know it's flavorless, but so is water, and if I add too much of that to my hot chocolate it makes the flavor weak as hell.

And as someone said earlier, this isn't beer. But it's also not carbonated whisky. (Fuckoff FF spellcheck, ya ignorant git)
It is to beer what applejack is to hard cider, or in a less correct but probably better known example, what brandy is to wine. Beer is not involved in the whisky process.

Fuck that 8% bullshit.

I'm sure the beer in question tastes like garbage. But there are a lot of beers above 8% that are fantastic.


St. Bernardus ABT12 - 10.5%

Delirium Nocturnum - 8.5% (Ok it's close, just wanted to put it on here b/c it is a very good beer imo)

Double Bastard Ale - 10.5%

QFT, lots if not all Belgian Quads are in the 10+ range and they are fantastic and hide the alcohol well. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned DFH 120 although I hear it's got a very strong alcohol burn.

While I respect Mad Dog for being a very creative and innovative brewery I can't see a reason to make an unnaturally high ABV beer other than just for shits, giggles, and bragging rights. As a homebrewer, that thought has never entered my mind. I just wanna make beer that tastes good. lol

Two of my favorite beers are above 8% (however, not much):

La Fin du Monde
Maudite

Almost everything made by Unibroue is great. They're not the type of beers that people that enjoy Budweiser would be drinking though.

[SilverBreeze]

Wait, people drink beer for the taste?

What the fuck?

It's something grownups do; You'll understand someday.

Marketing... we are talking about their products because of something they did. Do you really think restaurants fight for the 'worlds biggest burger' status because they expect people to eat it?
