Here in Belgium we have several beers at this strength, among them one
called
'Bush' (no connection with an ex-president) which weighs in at 12%. I was
told
once by a brewer at a Belgian microbrewery that the theoretical maximum for
beer is around 13%.

I have to say that once beer gets much above 10%, I find that the alcoholic
taste dominates and reduces the drinking pleasure.
