It's funny, the Dutch feel the same way about Heineken. They say it's
brewed for Americans

It is. It’s all watered down. 7% alcohol here, 40% there...



Unlikely.


Could be but not likely Heinekens. The record in Europe for
alcohol content in beer is "Snake Vemon", a Scottish brew
with an alcohol content of 67.5 percent.




Lots of places in the USA beer is limited to about 10%. Have to call it
something else if over that. Ale, malt liquor, etc.



The newest version (2017) of Sam Adams Utopias is 28% alcohol and is
marketed as "high alcohol beer". $200 a bottle. But, you are right,
it is illegal in eleven states. Legal in MA though.


Ah, that explains the extremely stringent gun control laws in MA.
