If it was pure, then wouldn't be 200-proof?

Default I think Everclear

is the highest proof alchohol made (for consumption). I doubt there is anything that is more pure than Everclear (that's for consumption)

technically you're right ... but that last couple percent is water and the only way you can get it out is in a laboratory, so they call 197 proof pure.
The stuff is actually pretty dangerous because its so strong that you can pretty easily kill yourself from alcohol poisoning drinking to much of it to fast.

Default Hell Yeah!!!

I LOVE Jack Daniels. It is about the only hard liquor I like. I don't mix it though. Just take straight shots. uuummmmmmm.............. I like the taste of it, so adding coke would just ruin it for me.

The first time I got drunk, I had about a half a glass of aftershock mixed with 7-up, and 10 Bud Lights after that. Needless to say, now if I smell any type of cinnamon alcohol, I want to barf.

I'm only 22, but I really don't drink much anymore. It dehydrates the crap out of me. My favorite beer right now is New Castle Brown Ale. It's good stuff. Imported from England and a little pricy, but since I only go thorough about a sixer every two-three weeks, its very affordable.

And of course I have a 5th of Jack in the fridge, but I have only taken one shot of it and I bought it 3 weeks ago. I need to get going. j/k

I've been told by a good friend that there is a store in HB that sells real Everclear. I'll let you know if I can get it for you. Later, Keith
