Capers are strong so there's a high chance it was the capers not
the vinegar flavored brine that caused to strength.

Brine is salt water. It tastes like very wet salt.

Sprinkle a few on a salad or a pizza.
Recipes that include a little anchovy fillet curled into a round
nuggest often include putting a caper in the middle. The strong
caper complements the differently strong anchovy.
When doing homemade pickled veggies, add a few capers to add a
little zing to the final product.
I like green or red olives that have been stuffed with capers
rather than pimentos.
