Message mkade8883 beers 250 º places 28 º 11:37 Wed 7/21/2010 Can we all just agree that it’s not beer, it’s liquor. The bottom line is that freezing to remove water content as ice is a form of distillation. Is there a beer with higher alcohol content than Utopias without being frozen? Otherwise for my money, that’s still the world’s highest abv beer.

I prefer the term Cryoconcentration, though a more common term is Fractional Freezing. Distillation requires boiling, this clearly avoids it. Terming anything that’s been frozen would remove Eisbock which has been long accepted as beer. This is just a more extreme version.
Message Myrup 12:23 Wed 7/21/2010 Originally posted by cgarvieuk Originally posted by Myrup Scots brewery releases world’s strongest and most expensive beer (stv) and just out of noseyness what you doing hanging out on STV web site I run the Danish beer news site Beerticker.dk. For that reason I continously monitor what shows up on the web concerning beer. In Denmark and internationally - so I wasn’t specifically looking at the STV site. Anyhow - the STV story has now disappeared from the web. But BrewDog has previously promised BIG news tomorrow - Thursday. The question now is - did the story leak to early or was it a hoax. Maybe a hoax leading to the real news being released tomorrow? Guess we’ll be wiser tomorrow.
