Nevermortal 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2004 So yeah.... My friends and I (mostly me) have been contemplating testing fate and trying some Everclear. Anyone ever tried any? Is it as bad as this guy says it is? For some reason I'm expecting a prompt AoO response, but anyone will do. Fire away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted January 8, 2004 There's two ways you can drink everclear: like a pussy, and like a man. Both will make you puke. Please be clear on this before you begin. The pussy way: Hairy Buffalo. Mix Fruits, fruit juices, and everclear in no specific proportion in a large container. Too evercleary? Add more fruit. Like a man. You take a shot glass, and you put some everclear in it. Top with tabasco, or a hot sauce of your choosing, and let it rip. It will slightly kill the alcohol smell and taste, but it will make it burn worse, if that's really possible. Enjoy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2004 I had a few friends who made a giant Rubbermaid bin full of Sangria for a party, except that they used $5 box wine for the base and then everclear instead of the typical brandy. People saw fruit clumped around in there and thought, hey, this'll be great. Never since have I been privy to so much violent hurling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted January 8, 2004 That's the cheap wine's doing, not the everclear. Too much sugar. Everclear's just grain alcohol, which people don't seem to understand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest T®ITEC Report post Posted January 8, 2004 Wouldn't it kill a person to drink Everclear straight? It's what I've heard, and I'm wondering. If it does, how much does it take? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2004 (edited) We had to go over this in my mixology (fancy name for bartending) class. A list of Alcohol Contents by volume (double the number, drop the % for the Proof) Light beer 4% Regular beer 6% (May vary) Wine cooler 6% Dark beer 8% Wines 12-20% Amaretto 28% Kahlua 28% Tequila 40% Cognac 40% Drambui 40% Bourbon 43% Whiskey 43% Scotch 43% Vodka 43% Rum 43% Gin 43% Brandy 43% Everclear 95% Everclear is almost pure alcohol, and yes drinking it straight is dangerous and certainly wouldnt take much to do harm.

Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted January 8, 2004 I drank it once, and I've drank gasoline, and they were both pretty bad, but I think the gas was worse. So I've you've ever been siphoning gas and accidently swallowed it, you should be ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HungryJack Report post Posted January 8, 2004 straight shots of everclear aren't too bad. round here, it's a birthday tradition to do 1 or 2 . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EricMM 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2004 I've had like seven half shots of everclear in one night. Just have a handy chaser ready... It really doesn't feel good but it's quick at least. Jungle juice is (IMO) a waste of time. Thats what we call the Everclear+Oranges+Juice thing. Just don't be an idiot and treat it like vodka, ok? It's more than twice as strong...

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted January 9, 2004 See, even Eric drinks Everclear like a man. Tellin' you, hot sauce is the magic key to drinking the stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
