Some years ago, I had a sip of BrewDog's "Tactical Nuclear Penguin" stout at a party. IIRC, it was in the same neighborhood as this brew, in terms of ABV. It tasted like a mixture of NyQuil, vodka and dark-roast coffee grounds. Not something I would go seeking far from home.

The BrewDog guys in Aberdeen only made the stuff to annoy the EU regulators, who were aghast at the craft brewer's previous high-octane brew (Tokyo Stout), which was only around 17% ABV. That one sounds more enjoyable, but it seriously crossed some lines of propriety in the UK. Who knows, maybe the single-malt distillers were worried at the trend.
