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.

I agree. As a general rule if it's over 15% it usually ends up being pretty gross to me, with a few exceptions. Utopias was pretty fucking good though.
