I've still yet to try Utopias (or Tactical Nuclear Penguin for that matter, although I'm sure I'll order one. I came really close to clicking "Purchase" last night....) And calories should NEVER factor into beer selection! Good point on the brewing processes.

And calories should NEVER factor into beer selection!

But, does anyone really believe TNP is fermented to 32%? They started with a 10% porter and ice distilled it to the final gravity. I'd rather sample Sam Adams Utopias or Dog Fish Head 120 min. IPA which uses special yeast strains and innovative brewing processes to achieve an abv of 27% and 21% abv respectively. Brewdog is certainly smart in the marketing department.
