Beer snobs: What are some of your favorite high alcohol beers?

I live in Ga where the limit is 14% abv. I have a friend in Fl that is in this area each week and picks up beers for me periodically. I am looking for some ideas on what high abv beers to have him pick me up for cellaring. I currently have a couple Dogfish Head raison d extra, 120 minute Ipa and Avery Mephistopheles.

Goose Island Bourbon County Stout, and all of the variants.
The Bruery does a bunch of high-gravity beers, but I find most to be too sweet.
BrewDog's Tokio Imperial Stout isn't bad.

I would really like to try some of the Bruery's beers but Total Wine in Jacksonville (where my buddy goes) does not seem to carry any.

I would not recommend aging coffee beers

I am waiting. I have never had it. How hard is it to get? I assume it is a lot more difficult than Bourbon County.

once it gets over 10-11% abv I have a hard time with them. I drank a bunch of small pours of bruery beers at the Bruery tap room a couple years ago and I couldn't imagine drinking a pint of any of them. Melange 3 was like 18%. took me 30 minutes to drink a 4 oz pour

KBS, Bourbon County, Clown Shoes' Unidragon series, Hammer of the Holy Extremely Angry Beast, Squatter's Outer Darkness, Black Tokio from Brew Dog, Mikkeller's Beer Geek Vanilla Shake.
I've been trying to slow down on the high gravity stuff because it's ruining my palate for everything else.

The strongest abv I have had is Bourbon County.

possibly, or because it was my 18th 4oz pour that sitting

Anyone had any of Avery's high abv offerings?
Posted on 3/11/15 at 12:39 pm to mouton
I've gotten to the point where I just don't enjoy beers with a huge ABV. Bourbon County is good, but I haven't had one since the week it was released in late November, and still have a bunch in my fridge. The beers that are 18% like a lot of the Bruery offerings just really aren't enjoyable beyond a few sips.

I've had most of them, they are really good, but I wouldn't want to sit and drink even a 12 oz. bottle by myself.
