Incidentally, my brother in law was in the Brigantes pub near Ackbars Indian restaurant the other day and they had, along with lots of real ales, bottled beer from all over the place.
Anyway they had one called Brewdog Tactical Nuclear Penguin at 32% abv (which is the World record).
It came in a 25ml bottle at £5.95.
So if you do your maths, and assuming I did it correctly, if that was a session ale at 4% abv, it would cost £17 a pint!
Your round ..... :lol:

Thank God I'm an atheist.

I once bought a bottle (330ml) of their Tokyo 18.2% for £15 in Cask Corner :lol:

The Tactical Nuclear Penguin has subsequently been outdone twice in the abv stakes ... Brewdog Sink the Bismark 41% and Brewdog The End of History 55% - they like pushing boundaries.

What must it taste like?
I thought there was a limit to beer strength short of distillation.

One's I missed which I would have liked to try;

Caledonian Poltergeist Porter 4.0%
Oakleaf Cream of the Crop 4.2%
St Peters Extra 4.4%
Backyard Premium 4.5%
Mordue Oatmeal Stout 4.5%
Adnams Barley Mow 5.0%
Wadworth What The Fuggles 5.0%
Batemans Hazelnut Brownie 6.3%

The Oakleaf, St Peters, Adnams & Wadworth ales were brewed exclusively for the festival but hopefully some of the others will be available and get sampled in time.

Fair question, but no.

Been disappointed by the number of Festive Ales / Winter Warmers I've seen but perhaps I've just not been in the right place at the right time.

I am surprised no one has mentioned the new Ale House in the Market Place next to the Masons.It,s full of bottles of Real Ale.

Not visited yet, but plan to.

It gets a favourable write-up in Donny Drinker (Doncaster & District CAMRA magazine) and majors on locally sourced Ales & Ciders as well as continental bottles.

According to the report they also offer Cask Ales for takeout.
