It isn't really beer imho, since it is fortified beyond the strength

traditional beer making.

But what's the point anyway?

I drink beer because I enjoy it and its a nice long drink when you're
thirsty. When the weathers nice I can sit out in the garden with a pint
and enjoy it. Then I can go back to whatever I was doing before.

A pint of that stuff and I'd either fall asleep or fall over. Either way I
wouldn't get much else done and it would certainly be dangerous to try to
do anything in the workshop.

If I want a "strong" drink, maybe in the evening before I go to bed, I'll
pour myself a wee dram of whisky - single malt of course!

Exactly, who wants a shot of beer.
They come in bottles of a certain size for a reason, to drink in one
sitting while relaxing or taking a break.
That stuff, forget it.
