Most Extreme Beers By Style

I was going to say Sarah Hughes Dark Ruby Mild, but it seems there may be even stronger milds around. Still fairly extreme for the style.

 

Conflux No.1
Most extreme in that it went through 7 different types of barrels.

 

whatever kind of beer Stone Ruin Ten is.....that
Boulevard Quad (or any quad for that matter)

 

Hottest/spiciest beer - Elevator Ghost Scorpion Lager (batch 1 or the pepper hopped version served at firey foods fest day 1). Best uses include cooking with it and pouring samples to random strangers at DLD

 

for me in my little world, Stone Imperial Russian Stout wins hands down for booziest ... EXTREME booze

 

Are you talking about just extreme ABV, or extreme in other manners? There are plenty of beers that get crazy without having really high ABV

Mothers Brewing MILF - Imperial Stout aged in Rum, Sherry, Whiskey, Brandy, and Bourbon barrels with cocoa nibs and raisins at 11% ABV.

Praire Ales just announced a rum barrel aged version of Bomb! - 14% ABV stout aged in rum barrels with cocoa nibs, coffee, vanilla beans, and ancho chiles. I imaging some the Hunahpu variants are similar as well.

 

I think when it comes to Belgian styles the beers of Brasserie Dubuisson are up there. The flagship, Bush Ambrée (12%) is extremely strong, sweet and sticky and there's a version called Bush Prestige which is even stronger (13%).

 

American wild ale - are there any higher abv than Weyerbacher Riserva at 11.4%?

 

"Extreme" goes a lot further to me than just the ABV. I mean, we could just copy/paste the Strongest Beer list from "the other site" in that case.

The Amager Hr. Frederiksen was pretty damn extreme as far as imperial stouts go. It was an anise bomb. Too much for me, I actually hate anise unless it's fairly subtle like fennel bulbs. Or of course in brilliant stouts like the Stone Belgo Anise. That stuff was deelish.

Just for the record: the Hunahpu stouts only SOUND totally extreme and off the charts. The main reason why I love them is because of their balance.

 

Weird beers are fuckin weird. Gimme the tried and true.

 

Their XVIII is pretty up there for a weizenbock, too- like 11%. Unfortunately it would have been a much better beer if they dropped it down a few notches.

 

Fermented Mountain Dew?

 

Dogfish Head's World Wide Stout is a pretty extreme stout - it is to the stout what their 120 is to the (D)IPA.

 

Ithaca's Tastes like Burning Ralph Wiggem's Revenge

 

D

 

u seriousy went from a KBE to Cognac de Muerty DL in one day...? Im doing this wrong..

 

But it seems you're living within your means, Alex. Trust in that.

 

I don't doubt that Hunahpu is awesome and balanced. But the ingridients are far from normal and verge on the extreme. Stick all that in a barrel and I'd say extreme is a fairly accurate description. They are very extreme when compared to the "normal" and "average" idea of what a stout is.
