If you were in the UK, you might have seen "Buckfast Tonic Wine" [1]
It's a fortified wine rather than a beer - but it's 15% ABV with 30mg/100ml caffeine, and comes in standard-sized wine bottles.
Apparently, Buckfast accounts for 0.5% of alcohol sales in Scotland but it's responsible for 80% of public intoxication incidents.
