Boston’s Samuel Adams brewery has unveiled its strongest beer yet, named Utopias 2025, which boasts a staggering alcohol content of 30% by volume. This potent brew comes with a price tag of $240 per 24.5-ounce bottle and is not available in 15 states due to its high alcohol content.
Utopias has been a hallmark of Samuel Adams since its first release, with each vintage pushing the boundaries of beer crafting. Founder Jim Koch expressed pride in reaching this milestone, emphasizing that this release represents the culmination of over thirty years of experimentation and innovation in brewing.
The latest version of Utopias is a unique blend, utilizing barrel-aged beers that range up to 30 years old and matured in casks including Irish whiskey, Amarone, and Cognac. These aging processes impart a complex flavor profile featuring notes of caramel, oak, dried fruit, smoke, and citrus.
The beer is legalized for sale in 25 states, but if you’re in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Missouri, Mississippi, Montana, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Utah, Vermont, or West Virginia, you won’t find it on the shelves. Interested drinkers can look for it in select specialty stores starting this Tuesday.
