Mystery of Beer by Brouwerij 't Koelschip is the world's strongest beer

Mystery of Beer by Brouwerij t Koelschip is the strongest beer in the world. With an alcohol content of 70%, it is certainly not your average beer. In fact, it is so strong that it is advised to be consumed in small shot glasses rather than regular beer glasses.
