Everclear
 
not sure which room this should be in, so I am gonna go with General

Anyone here try Everclear (190 proof, almost pure grain alcohol)?
Any good stories? Bad stories?

steelerz 11-17-2003 09:05 PM

It's pretty good depending on what you mix it with. We used to have parties where we would mix it in tubs with hawaiian punch and fruit. I don't remember much about the parties so it must have been pretty good. If you want to try it this way, mix it and let it set for a couple hours before you drink it. You can get ripped just eating the fruit. Damn we had fun back then...I think.

Cycler 11-17-2003 09:09 PM

It is an express train to blitz-ville. Mix it. It is just a means to an end (getting drunk). Not a sipping liquor by any stretch of the imagination.

World's King 11-17-2003 09:22 PM

Just have a beer.


No reason to kill all your brain cells in one night.

santafe5000 11-17-2003 09:56 PM

Like you said, Its 190 proof. A little goes a long way and it is best used in small quanties in single drinks, or a half pint in a punch bowl. Was the best way to get unsupecting young virgins blitzed out of their mind at frat parties. Be careful how much you use as this can be deadly if too much is ingested.

Craven Morehead 11-17-2003 10:07 PM

I've seen people get hammered that never drank before. Fall down drunk. Be careful. As I recall it has no taste or smell at all. It mixes with nearly anything.

taliendo 11-17-2003 10:08 PM

everclear only reminds me of one thing, cleaing up some drunk chicks puke for over an hour on New Years Eve. I didn't even know her name, but I sure as hell was going to make sure that she didn't die in the middle of my friends party. Talk about a buzz kill.

Chingal0 11-17-2003 10:23 PM

I took a shot a few years ago. Needless to say it was the begining of an interesting evening.

Hrothgar 11-17-2003 11:22 PM

To me synonymous with puking, hangovers, and frat parties. FUN.

31Friction 11-18-2003 12:01 AM

its ok to make hooch with. but thats it. you can clean motor parts and even run an engine with the stuff... not my type of drink.

dy156 11-18-2003 07:30 AM

One night, after a frat party, the kegs were floated, no more alcohol left, and there were a few guys all just hanging out with nothing to do, drunk but still awake. One guy finds the everclear used for the trashcan punch, and mixes it with blue koolaid. I'm sure it was disgusting, but we were thirsty, and drunk enough that we couldn't tell the difference.
Stayed up till the sun came up, telling stories and singing old country songs we all knew by heart with one guy playing the guitar, all quite drunk. Crashed on the couches. Maybe one of the only "good" everclear stories.
Hung over and faced with the aftermath of the party, the next day wasn't so good, though!

Hanxter 11-18-2003 07:56 AM

it'll make ya go blind...
there's another we used to get in central america - guatemala - called indita - you could use it on yer car as starting fluid

skysooner 11-18-2003 08:12 AM

It will knock you on your butt. It is rather harsh and I don't think it really mixes well. Give me a good bourbon or scotch anyday over Everclear.

battlemouth 11-18-2003 09:52 AM

ah everclear, how i loathe thee. its illegal to buy in MA but then i came to RI and had some. its great to make jello shots with horrible to have shots of and it kicks your ass regardless.

dragon2fire 11-18-2003 09:59 AM

stay away

bad stuff

too storng

like wk said have a beer

micah67 11-18-2003 10:15 AM

A little splash on top of a drink and you can flambe anything (alternatively use Rum-151).

Then again, maybe fire and drunks don't mix...

Agreed. We made a few jello bowls with Everclear and it knocked the big football fellows on their asses.

Do NOT take shots of this when you are already drunk, or even sober. I get a headache just thinking of Everclear shots.

sailor 11-18-2003 11:03 AM

Yeah, its some pretty strong shit. TAKE YOUR TIME. If you drink it (and you likely are if you go to a party and drink punch), take it easy. Drink it slow. Its a lot stronger than you think.

And dont start drinking it after you are already drunk. By that point you dont have enough judgement to make yourself slow down, and its an express ticket to worshipping the porcelain gods.

Snakebyt 11-18-2003 01:24 PM

back in my younger day we used to drink it almost every weekend,,, out mix was Country Time(no other brand would work) Pink Lemonaid, vodka, and a shot of everclear.. made for many nights that i dont remember much about

QuasiMojo 11-18-2003 01:36 PM

if you drink this stuff like you would a beer, you will be blind and walking sideways before you know what hit you. (or WHO hit you...
or before you know what YOU hit.


DANGER! DANGER! Will Robinson!

a little goes a long, long, longlong way. And the label should really have a skull and crossbones on it.

yournamehere 11-18-2003 02:36 PM

If the only reason you drink is to get drunk, it's your new best friend.

Craven Morehead 11-18-2003 02:44 PM

I've also heard of cutting a small hole in a watermelon and pouring a bottle of Everclear into the melon, then splitting it open about an hour later. I only did that once with vodka and that got everyone pretty drunk, can't imagine what Everclear would do. It probably would get ugly real quickly.

arael 11-18-2003 03:18 PM

not even worth it. No taste and way too strong. Drinking is for enjoyment... if you just want to get drunk, you may have problems

lordjeebus 11-18-2003 03:32 PM

In high school my friends and I used to take shots of Spirytus Rektifikowany, a 192 proof Polish spirit that was available for about 6-7 dollars for half a liter. We were rather cheap and rather stupid.

The instant it entered your mouth (assuming you didn't dump it down your throat), all the water from your cheeks and tongue would flush out into your oral cavity (osmosis in action!), giving you an intensely dry mouth even though there's liquid in there. At the same instant, you'd get an instant light-headed drunk feeling, presumably from alcohol entering the blood through your cheeks. This is before swallowing.

The burn is surprisingly mild. The drunken effects were very strong and fast, but wore off in 15 to 30 minutes, if only one shot was taken.

HoChiMinh 11-18-2003 11:52 PM

We used to take shots of it in high school, just bullshiting around and daring eachother to do more. Which was stupid, it tasted like gasoline and everyone just got hammered and started attempting to blow fireballs. A bunch of fire breathing drunk teenage guys is a recipe for disaster.
We just use it now to mix in large quantities of mixer.

WhoaitsZ 11-19-2003 12:47 AM

Everclear. Oh damn that is some way too strong stuff. I’ve always lived a responsible life. No drugs, but I did enjoy my bourbons and vodkas. Well, one night I had Everclear. . .

I know I beat me being in a wheelchair into the ground, but just in case you didn’t know, I am. The night before one brother’s wedding I got some beer and such with my other brother, James. Now I’ve always had the terrible habit of wanting to be the king cock. I had a very high tolerance of alcohol and said ‘fuck it’.

I had a cap full. Not a shot. A fuckin half teaspoon. Before it reached my throat I felt it hit. W h o a. my mouth went numb.

Sooooooooo I decided to go home.

I have a van with a life that unfolds and lifts me up and down to travel.

I missed the lift. Apparently I didn’t hit the right one in the middle!

Somehow by the grace of all things holy my cousin saw and caught my chair in the air and held it. boom. That quick I almost had a mortal accident cuz my trach would have impaled me.

The three of us sobered up quick. No more drinking for weeks heheh. I had to re-descleplin myself.

Stay away if you can. If not, be sober first and please have a sober friend handy!

Being silly = fun.

Getting killed = not so fun.

Dano069 11-19-2003 01:50 PM

I used to live in a predominantly Polish neighborhood and they used to drink the stuff like water. I don't know how the hell they lived through it.

It IS good when mixed in punch bowls and such. Mmmm....grain alcohol buzz...aaaaggggghhhhhhh

twotimesadingo 11-19-2003 03:11 PM

seriously scary stuff.

you can have a much better time with a good scotch. Johnnie Walker is your friend; everclear isnt.

ace81385 11-19-2003 07:08 PM

everclear is nutz My friend ina frat makes this ill mixed drink with it called Bang-her-aide !!! LOL

viejo gringo 11-19-2003 07:39 PM

We used it to put a little kick in our home made wine, when it did not turn out as we planned----just be careful---aquite alcohol poising will really F/U your day....

xtreemmar1ne 11-19-2003 11:38 PM

Definitely should only be drinking everclear if you're wanting to get yourself (or someone with less of a tolerance) drunk off your ass in under an hour. Four mixed drinks w/ the everclear.......lets just say from the parts i remember, it was a very nice night. :D

Rodney 11-19-2003 11:56 PM

Out here in California, I believe real Everclear is illegal -- gotta go to Nevada for it. You can get the junior Everclear, however -- 150 proof. But if you're going there, might as well go with Bacardi 151 -- tastes like something, anyway.

RippedSock1 11-20-2003 07:54 PM

eeesh. Everclear is hell. Satan's piss I tell ya.

saltfish 11-20-2003 09:07 PM

One of the only spirits I know of that has a warning on the bottle, something to the effect: "MUST BE MIXED, DO NOT DRINK STRAIGHT"

;)

-SF

Boo 11-25-2003 10:03 PM

Alcohol is alcohol.

Everclear can make a great party drink. Mix it with PLENTY of Sprite, Hawaiian Punch and some fruit. Can be very economical for large crowds.

A drunk will chug cough syrup to blitz out. Here in AK, the street drunks drink mouthwash by the quart.

Alcohol poisoning can happen (as with any hard liquer) if not mixed "lean" enough.

I had fewer hangovers during those "years". Just like the ones from Soju. Yummy..... just drink water in the AM.

TheFirstDuffMan 11-25-2003 11:53 PM

I know some people that make huge batches of kool-aid and then pour in some Everclear.

WarWagon 11-26-2003 08:37 AM

Its illegal around here, but that doesnt stop people from drinking it. A few weeks ago a roomates friend took two shots of it. At a party he tried jumping from one porch to another, missed, and broke several vertebrae in his back. He needed extensive surgery and it nearly cost him his life.

Frowning Budah 11-26-2003 07:00 PM

Had it at parties mixed in large amounts. Not terrible and it will get you drunk fast. Dangerous? Like all alcohol it will kill you if you drink too much. I guess it is easier to drink too much.
Everclear and grape juice = Purple Jesus. One drink and you see God.

anleja 11-26-2003 10:24 PM

Um, never had it, but it seems pretty adventurous.

Oh damn, I just remembered I've still got some of this stuff in the liquor cabinet. Really strange what it does to the inside of your mouth straight, kind of like a dull spreading warmth.
