the best beer for alcoholism WAS new belgium's voodoo ranger imperial IPA, its 9% abv but doesn't taste like it's really strong
but they stopped fucking going on sale for 13.99 now half the time that shit is 19 fucking dollars
hell yeah, that's a good beer.

Pro tip look for an outlet grocery store if they have them near you. I can still get $7 6 Packs and $12 12 packs most times.
Best beer for alcoholism is malt liquor. Idk prices now, but you used to be able to get two tall boys for $5, and that’s enough to get even the drunkest drunk good and tipsy, anyone else will be pretty trashed. I haven’t drank in almost 10 years though
Two weak ass tall boys that I'd struggle to physically drink fast enough to actually get drunk and would taste like pee pee water
Bruh Steelies are 8%, and 2 of them is 64oz lmao. It doesn’t taste great, but if you’re a drunk you stopped caring about that a long time ago. Or you’re just still in the denial phase and think drinking is cultured, but I used bourbon for that period, back when a good bottle was $30-40.
Okay so I get 1% less alcohol AND it tastes like shit. Read my comment, it's a good beer because it gets you jacked and it doesn't taste like it's 9% OR have that bitter hoppy bullshit taste people seem to love in IPAs
So you’re still in the denial phase it seems lol. It’s okay, if you really go all in on alcoholism you won’t care what it tastes like at all. Hopefully you don’t though, cause alcohol is pretty nasty
I drank voodoo ranger when I felt nice to myself in my alcoholism, but normally I wanted the cheapest shit possible so it'd be a steel reserve or worse, hurricane.
Man, when I was deep in the throes of alcoholism(semi-sober now) during the pandemic that was my go-to beer. I wouldn't say it was good, but New Belgium was the perfect intersection of high alcohol content, a decent price, and not tasting like it was malt trash. Last I checked they were like $(US)20 for a 12 pack near me though so I don't think it's still in that category.
I disagree with it not tasting strong though. A single sip would make my hair stand on end hahaha.
Their juicy IPA is my go to for a good buzz.
Those price hikes are absolutely rampant.
