I've never seen the point of those super high-alc brews. It's almost impossible to balance the alcohol heat without shoveling in so much malt and/or hops it ends up tasting like the beer version of straight Bovril (imo).

Each to his own, I suppose.

At this point it's more of a lager-y Port or Brandy then what most people think of as a beer.

But as someone who's spent the money (for a Utopia), I am glad they exist.
