8.1 % alcohol by volume, but only 3.2 % in Utah..... LOL

Just saw a new 12% malt liquor at the petrol station, looks promising. Had some absurd name like "Road Rage" ... LOL

Note: "Brewed for a minimum of 28 days" has been removed from the Steel Reserve can design. Presumably they're no longer brewing that piss for 28 days. pale

That's high. UK equivalent, probably Tennents Super and Carlberg Special (I think they're about 9% these days - falling over water for the discerning wino and alky).

I used to drink the Carlberg Special. When I didn't mind falling over.

Accurately speaking, most of the beverages that I regularly consume are antialternitive.
maybe I don't understand the implied(?) question(?)
I think maybe the entire whole world has gone insane.

No, the creature lurking in the bottom of the bottle was much bigger than a worm. The drink may not have been Mexican.

Those drinks used to be sold as aphrodisiacs.

But around here guys just think it's cool to have a bottle on their desk.
