So, as someone with a stupid high tolerance (usually), I agree with everyone here who said look for places that offer cheaply upgraded doubles. I also agree that I get better pours out of Japan (the Sake bar in the back of Mitsukoshi) and China, or in La Cava when you subtly convince the bartender to make you a fresh versus pre-made drink (I'd also argue this is about being friendly versus being an attractive woman, as I've heard argued a few too many times, I can personally vouch for looking like a hot mess on what I thought was the verge of pneumonia at least one of the times I got a fresh batch out of the bartender).
Also don't discredit high ABV beers, sometimes that is the best you can do in Disney when you want something that will pack a punch.
To your point- I had the Elysian Space Dust IPA on draft at Geyser Point at Wilderness Lodge. I began to feel the effects pretty immediately. When I mentioned it to the bartender, she mentioned the beer has 8.2% ABV!!! Needless to say, when I got home I bought a six-pack.
