Newcastle is only 4.7% and yet people swear it's stronger. I drink three brands. Old Stock Ale from North Coast Brewery, Founder's Dirty Bastard, and Paulaner Double Bock, if I can't get one of the other two.
Old Stock comes in at 10-12% depending on the year, and Dirty Bastard and the Paulaner at about 8%. Know your beer(s)!
