I'm guessing this tastes like carbonated varnish. Good video.
I doubt it's even very carbonated. Sounds more like a Jackass stunt than a beer. I had a Sam Adams Triple bock (17.5%) many years ago and it did not even vaguely resemble beer.

Take a glass of your favorite beer, and add grain alcohol until you reach 32% ABV (math required).

You now have the same thing, since that's how they obviously made that gimmick.

Actually, dins, what you describe might actually be better as it would still have a fair bit of moisture in it. What these knucklheads have done is just dehydrate the fukk out of it. I think the jackass stunt is actually a pretty good description. I would like to try the shit, just out of curiosity though.

I'd be willing to bet that this muck is about as carbonated as pancake syrup. Probably a bit thicker than syrup. More like honey.
