Dude, for me, 9% is too much. Yeah, I did come to life around 7am, but with both eyes in the same socket....

Next time, I'll bump it down to 5% or so.

I love my beer. My hangovers that get pregnant and have baby hangovers while I'm asleep? Not so much.

It was entertaining. And educational.

Less sugar in the next recipe.

I’d like to do a good cellarable (high gravity) beer, but my days of doing BDBs (Big Damn Beers) just ‘cause I can is over. There’s more of a challenge to making a lighter beer with a clean flavor profile and on style. And by lighter, I don’t mean no flavor. We made a Belgian Golden ale that was surreal.

Oh, and hangovers suck, especially when you’re over 50.

I have cut back on brewing high gravity beers myself. They are interesting to contemplate, but it is heck for me to deal with the effects. I like a brew that I can enjoy and have another one or two if I want and not have to take a nap compelled by a beer.

There are pros and cons to the higher %s.

If you like more than 2-3 at a time better keep it at 5%

I love my beer too, but if I overindulge (in beer or any other kind of alcohol) I get a headache that shoots right up the side of my neck and doesn't go away until I take a lot of medication. That's been going on for about the past 25 years, and it's a good thing. I enjoy great beer in moderation, and my waistline is still within limits!
