>drinking to get drunk

stick to buckfast, ned.

all high alcohol beer tastes like shit (don't listen to beer "enthusiasts")
if you're drinking to get drunk, drink a low calorie beer as you will be able to drink it in higher volumes without feeling bloated
if you want something with 10%+ alcohol then drink wine

> I want to drink some beer that'll get me fucked up without tasting like shit.

You sound underaged. Just mix rum and coca cola.

This is my all-time favorite beer, 9% ABV. The strongest beer I've had is Dogfish Head World Wide Stout, clocking in at 19% for that vintage. Like drinking a 12oz bottle of wine.

Old Rasputin is fucking great, excellent choice my friend.

tokyo by brewdog
its 18%, and it actually tastes decent- easily the tastiest overproof they make

I had this recently and it was pretty tasty.

I dearly love the oak-aged releases, but alas, they aren't distributed here in Mississippi. I also enjoy a good Great Divide "Yeti" or Deschutes "Abyss", but again, can't get those here.

Sierra Nevada Bigfoot isn't too strong at 9.6%, but I liked it that much that I drank a load and it did the job very well.

This is also delicious, but a lower ABV.

Or, you know, a quart of IPA

Bigfoot tastes fuckawful

You really have to like hops.

Oscar Blues Ten Fidy. Great Lakes Blackout Stout or their Lake Erie Monster (which may be discontinued from what I hear next season)

what a pile of shit

They make some really amazing beers. I absolutely adore the flavor profile of their Aphrodite Belgian. Almost like drinking a Rose Brut, but maybe not as fizzy.

no, it's just really bad

i don't like barleywines in general though but i can tell when something is just shit

I stumbled into some event with a guy from Deschutes Brewery there who let us taste some bottle of The Abyss that he had aged for a couple years. As far as I remember, that was my favorite beer over 10% ABV (it's 11%). I haven't tried a lot, though.

Goose Islands Bourbon County Stout was just released,its 14% and runs $20 for a 4 pack.

Wasn't goose island bought out by a larger company? It's automatically bad, despite being 14% which would otherwise make it automatically good.

this stuff tastes like welches made beer and its 8% and is pretty cheap.

I was surprised how much I liked it when they had a tasting at the store....Lots of bourbon but the high ABV does not overpower the other flavors that do come through.Served warm and savored.

any beer over 7% is goddamn thick and awefull

it feels like i was drinking some goddamn oil with alcohol

pic related, i could not drink it

Not the highest in abv (about 8%) but a delicious doppelbock.

>conceived in san francisco, brewed in new york

Speedway Stout. 12%. Absolutely zero alcohol bite. It's like drinking coffee chocolate milk. AFAIK only available in Southern California.

>not getting drunk on delicious ipa's and stouts

>>5023316
look into belgian tripel's this one's 9% and its not thick or awful

>>5023374
Getting drunk on anything that tastes good is a waste, party boy

>>5023381
drinking anything that tastes bad is a waste no matter your intentions

I really hate American beer branding. It's either rustic in a weirdly dull and tasteless way or trendy to a fault and trying way too hard,

>>5018730
the cuvee van de keizer im drinking right now is 11%

>>5022915

Just don't drink it if it's even slightly warm, otherwise it will taste like sweaty feet.
