Beer Snobs
9% beer is insane.
That totally defeats the purpose of beer. To hydrate and quench.
7% is even too high.
5% is normal............even thou 4% is standard for American beer.
Wine is normally 12%
A 40% alchoholic drink if mixed right at 3:1 is normally 10%.

I normally just drink Vodka or Whiskey straight but on occasion I enjoy some Molson XXX or Guinness or Bud Ice. So I started drinking some XXX with my steak at the begining of the game tonight. GO TRIBE!! :P

That'* not surprising. I got a bottle of Sam Adams Triple Bock once, it was an 8oz. bottle IIRC, and it was very expensive too. It has 17.5% abv, and tastes almost like a wine. It coats the glass like you wouldn't believe!

After all, you can drink the stuff all day and the only effect is to make you **** lots.
BTW alcohol content is measured differently in Canada. Even if the label says 5% it'* still stronger than an American measured 5% I forget how that works but it can be looked up somewhere.

JMH, you brew too? 
You owe me a bottle for the filter 2000SilverBullet and I just picked up for you. You can deliver it in person at WCBF '08.
Paul and I just put the last two bottles of my WCBF 06 homebrew in the refer for later.
