Not that I'd want to discourage anyone sending beer to anyone, but...
Though perhaps well outside the mainstream US beer drinkers normal
experience there are a good variety of barley wines, Trappist type
ales, bocks and doppelbocks available in the US. The whole category of
high test beer is a fav of mine, and I'd agree you shouldn't need more
than a couple of fingers to know when you've had enough. Personally,
I'd say it's more like:
select limit from beer where type in ( 'Barley wine', 'Trappist',
'Bock', 'Doppelbock' )
limit
