I knew it would be close on 10%! Mine is strong enough at 8.14%.

I’ll let you knowLooks good but I think one could get in a right mess that
About to start cooking fish cakes so I’ve got a friend. Jim’s Verdant IPA. That’s all that’s ready anyway just now. Strawberry milkshake at the weekend! 
I’m starting with my Czech Pilsner this evening.

Local Lager for me
Ah! Inspiration!
German pilsner. Just what I need after lounging round by the lake all day. Food for the brain while I contemplate tonight's curry.
I just finished a phase of 12%-14%ABV Belgian Tripels (180-200 500ml bottles (16oz)). It was a challenge but now I think I'll slip down to 8%-10% ABV or so and not tweak good recipes.
I'd have to install a lavatory in the wardrobe having beers like that around.
Sometimes after drinking a few of those, I think I was lucky not to fall asleep in the lavatory or the wardrobe (that's an unattached, big clothes closet, right?).
Really, they're too strong to sit and drink at a gathering and nobody wanted to believe me when I said to be careful because they aren't normal beers.
English Bitter next
Yeah you're right Dave! I bet you could find a lion and a witch at the back of the wardrobe after a few jars of mind bender!
I’ve made a few strong beers that in the end I’ve had to drink all myself. Most of my family and friends start to get quite nervous beyond 6%, in fact they are far more comfortable if I describe a 5.98% beer as 5.9% rather than 6%!
Over the last year I’ve gradually dropped the strength of many of my beers because I do drink quite a bit (keep that quiet, I don’t think anyone’s noticed
).
Just tried this note lack of glass, it went straight down the sink bloody awful worst ale I have ever tasted
Good evening,
A proper glass full of the Exmoor Gold tonight.
Yep,
Tasty!
Hmm, exposure not quite bright enough so beer is more gold than brown.

My family's a bit different. We all tend toward Imperial stouts, Belgian Quads and Tripels, Imperial IPAs and so on. But even those from the market max around 9% or 10%.
I'm going to make a Founders Better Half clone next which is in the 9% range. It's 12.7% in the one they sell. It has molasses and maple syrup flavors and low IBU (35 I think).
