It's banned in 13 states and it sure doesn't come in a six-pack!

The maker of Sam Adams beer has released an updated version of its biennial beer Utopias.

At 27 percent alcohol by volume and $150 a bottle, the limited release is now the highest alcohol content beer on the market.

The drink comes in a ceramic and copper bottle that resembles a tiny brew kettle. Thirteen states prohibit its sale because its alcohol content exceeds the legal limit for beer.
