The subject pretty much explains it all, I am looking for the hardest shit around. It doesn’t matter if it has to be mixed or not, I just want to know what has the most alcohol content.

Everclear
I’ve about 5 litres of absolute ethanol in the lab. That do the trick?
In Poland there’s something called Spirytus which is about 96% pure alcohol.
Everclear (which is NOT availible in all states) is 190 proof (200 proof is pure), moonshine can be 190-200 proof. But man, that stuff doesn’t taste too good.
If at first you don’t succeed you’re about average.
Where did you get pure ethanol? It would have to be chemically created (as oppossed to distilled) and that stuff usually is denatured with methanol.
I think everclear is available in the states. I believe I have seen it. I know I’ve smelled it. STRONG!!! Never tasted it without it bieng in something.
It’s 99.99% ethanol, not denatured, no water, methanol or cyclohexane in it. And no duty paid on it either ;). Supplier: Aldrich
I believe you need a permit to get pure ethanol in some states. It’s mostly used for extractions and whatnot in chemistry, I think.

Yeah, we used to use pure ethanol in chem lab for cleaning glassware, etc.
I’ve drunk Everclear. It’s panther sweat. A little dab’ll do ya. A little too much will do ya in.
It could have been pure, but was more likely the usual lab grade, containing 5-10% water and a little cycohexane to make you vomit if you drink it :).
Without being as extreme as all these others, I think the strongest drink you can get in all 50 states is Bacardi 151 rum. 151 proof translates to 75.5%; if that’s not enough knock the feet out from under you, then you need to step in front of a bus.
You’d think that Superman would be a good person to invite to a barbecue but trust me, he’s not. I mean, sure he can cook the hot dogs fast with his heat vision, but they all taste of charred eye boogers.

I don’t need no stinkin’ cycohexane. My friends can aver that I have vomited after drinking alcohol without it.
Wow, 190 proof? That shit will probably burn a hole in your fucking throat. That is exactly the kind of stuff I was looking for. I couldn’t find that much info on Spirytus, though. I definitely have to try Everclear this weekend.

Zeus, take it easy, I don’t want to be reading about you on Monday…
Thread hijack in progress…
Ack! I didn’t hit submit reply! I promise!
Anyway, here’s what I meant to post.
Back when I was in college, I had a bottle of this lying around in my apartment (left over from a Halloween party). I was, at that time, suffering from a canker sore, and being such a wise and knowing young man, I thought to myself, “Well, these things are probably caused by evil germs of some sort or another. Alchohol kills germs, right?” So I decided that I could rid myself of this painful sore by using the Everclear as mouthwash.
Ouch.
Ouch ouch ouch.
Don’t do this!
I am Chaos, I am alive, and I tell you that you are free.
Everclear fireballs are pretty cool. Though anything over 100 proof or so should fireball too.

“I never meant to hurt you,” you said,
And buried yourself in lies instead.
Next time I would rather be slain,
Than forced to bear your mercy again.
I saw Everclear in a Wisconsin liquor store about a month ago. I didn’t check the proof, but I doubt that it’s been watered down.
No matter. That stuff is a fuel, not a beverage. I’ll never touch it again.
