So far the highest beer (alcoholic content) that I can find here is Tapper beer at 6.5 percent alcohol. Is there any other beers here with a higher alcoholic content.

the name Duvel means Devil. A very strong golden ale at 8.5 %. it’s called Duvel because it’s golden, crisp and smooth and hits you hard

obviously not, because the Thai government about ten years ago started to tax beers with an alcohol content of more than 5% like they would taxate wines and whiskies. I like the TAPPER very much, it has this rich taste of hops and malt

maybe I shouldn't have used "direct them", it would have been better to use "possibly suggest".

@Terry *********
Telling people that they should go to AA is NOT what a member (that has a clue), would do. If you want to drink, that's your business. Av Giuliano you can find the clues in the book.

I don't need help. The op was asking a genuine question. It doesn't mean he needs the services of AA. Neither do I, believe me. If I think or believe that I or people I know would possibly need the services of the AA, then I would certainly direct them.

My final word. You don't know me, my background OR my previous experiences or not with alcohol. So can I politely suggest that you keep your thoughts, regarding this, to yourself. Bear in mind some people have a sense of humour, and sometime times a sense of humour is used to help with issues, obviously not in your case. So be very careful when you decide to vent your thoughts and how it's done.

Goodnight young lady.

obviously you didn't go, because the meeting on soi 11 Is at the ambassador hotel and you have to pass like 25 bars to get there and there is a bar in the lobby of the meeting. Anyway I hope you get the help you need.
