Default Cheap strong beer--Steel Reserve 211

This stuff called Steel Reserve High Gravity 211 recently showed up at
Wal*Mart. It is 8.1% alcohol and is about as cheap as any beer they have.
I found that the company is owned by Miller.

I tried it, and it definitely has a "strong beer taste," and while it's no
Maudite, it doesn't taste as bad as I expected. Is "cheap strong beer"
going to be a new emerging market in the US?

It's already emerged. It's called "malt liquor."

The malt liquor I'm familiar with, Colt 45 is not as strong as 8.1%, and it
doesn't taste as much like expensive strong beer as Steel Reserve.
