<description><![CDATA[I think the title is a tad misleading. After all, the "extreme" comes from them being out of the norm in terms of taste, right? Do we see "extreme wines" or "extreme vodkas"? Why does this have to be such a big deal to beer?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I think they are great. They encourage people to try new beers, expand their beer palate a little bit. They also encourage brewers to stay on top of things and continue to fine tune their craft, ensuring that there continues to be new things to try!]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[BrewDog, makers of Punk IPA, Rip Tide, and Hop Rocker, has recently come under fire from the alcohol campaign group Alcohol Concern, for brewing and marketing more fuller-bodied brews which boast alcohol contents of upwards toward 12% and 10 times more hops than usual beers. One of Alcohol Concern's complaints is that one bottle can measure up to 330mLs, more than the daily recommended alcohol amount for men. The other complaint is that BrewDog is targeting the younger crowd, which is known for more binge drinking.<br/>BrewDog fought back, denying that they were encouraging reckless drinking, saying that their customers wouldn't be able to consume large quantities of their beverages at a time. "There's no way someone can drink 20 a night," said Martin Dickie, BrewDog's main brewer. He also said that his company's products were intended for home consumption, not for pubs or bars.<br/><br/>What does everyone here think about these "extreme" beers? Do any of you offer them in your establishments?]]></description>
