A lager for real men...

I was over in France during last week on a 'booze cruise'. Loaded up the car with cheap drink. I happened to stumble on this fine beverage:

Yes that's right, it's 11.6% volume. It's €1.20 a can (expensive for over there) and it's like drinking varnish. One thing is for sure, you're shíte will be shiny and smelling of pine afterwards!

It's called the maximator.

I... think I'm in love

Oh lord that is beautiful

It's a bit like saying "A pink shirt for a real man"

Larger is for women.

I think a close second place goes to this...stuff...

A 1 ltr can. I think it was about 98c in Italy. We stocked up on it for a long train journey... Beside it is a normal sized can for comparison.

If you don't look like a man drinking that stuff, well, you're probably not a man.

They do massive cans stateside too. I remember drinking some while I was over there.

It's not too bad when you're already drunk I find!

I seem to remember seeing something on the news about a 29% larger a few years ago. I wonder what happened to it.

Zaph · 24-03-2008 10:38PM

Not this stuff by any chance? Samuel Adams Utopias which weighs in at 25% and costs $100 a bottle.

I'm pretty sure it came in a normal brown beer bottle and was less than £40.

By any chance was it called Dave ? Brewed by "Hair of the Dog" ?
I think it was a limited edition ... and has since been discontinued. I'd bet it tasted awful. I still would though.

It might be the percentage seems to match. I can't really remember much about it but I think the reported said it tasted like muck. I'd still love to try it.
