3 strongest (tasting) beers you've ever had?

I'd need more time to come up with a definitive 3. However, last night I had a Weihenstehaner Vitus...and holy crap I was blown away with the sheer volume of flavor. I know a weizenbock might not be a common suggestion in this thread, but I was stunned.

 

By strongest, if we're talking about booziness (but not necessarily high ABV) I'd have to go with Brewdog Tokyo or Boulevard Rye on Rye on Rye.

 

Off the top of my head.. Ten Fidy, Schneider Aventinus Weizen-Eisbock, Utopias.

 

• BCBS
• BA Fidy
• Dragon's Milk Reserve Triple-Mashed
  

 

De Dole Oerbier .....I tried this way back in the late 1990's and it was so "strong" tasting I could not finish it.

Old NIck........back in the 1980's I bought this at Khyber pass based on the cool devil on the label and I could not drink it it was so different than anything I had before......it kept me away from barleywine for over 20 years. I was drinking lots of Belgian beers and new micros but this beer surprised me

Higher Math......such a strong taste, I like it dont like it then like it all in the same glass. when this gets to room temp the flavors really come out.


These are the first three that pop into mind.I need to revisit De Dolle , dont think Old Nick is still round


Enjoy

 

Schlenkerla Urbock
Jester King Atrial Rubicite
Ballast Point Victory at Sea

 

Bourbon county
Consecration
I'm not sure about the 3rd but those 2 stand out as being much more flavorful than I though they'd be.

 

Parabola- tobaco, old leathery baseball glove goodness

Old Stock Ale- cider, nutty, boozy as hell. Not really my thing

Watermelon Dorado- sugary, watermelon jolly rancher. Haven't had a watermelon beer I've liked yet and this one was no exception.

 

Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout, one of my top 5 beers
Sierra Nevada BBA Bigfoot, excellent brew
Ballast Point Habanero Sculpin, undrinkable

 

If we're going by alcohol, the booziest is a tie between Avery Metastophales and Anthem Pappy Burleson.
By Flavor: BA Ten Fidy, Crane Gooseberry Gose, Southern Tier Choklat Orangj

 

1. Samichlaus
2. Utopias
3. not sure on this one, but maybe Bigfoot

 

Even More Jesus
BA Ten Fidy, and
One of the Avery Demon Series, can't remember which one

 

Bourbon County Brand Stout and Devil
Dancer

 

Molotov Cocktail
Double Bastard
BA Yeti---undrinkable

 

Lately the Waldo's Special has been hitting me pretty hard. I know I have had bigger beers, but that comes to mind now.

 

I think I'd like a more specific definition from the OP on what "strongest" means. If I am defining it as "full, in-your-face" taste, I'd go with 3 from Dogfish Head (although there are many others):
1) Dogfish Head World Wide Stout--fantastic
2) DFH Olde School Barleywine--fantastic
3) DFH Higher Math--awful

 

Waldos is probably the most recent that comes to mind.
