I approve of this message.
it's a 7....How is 41.3% getting 142.6 proof? You, sir, have been had.
No its 71.3 percent alcohol.... Sloppy hand writingSo, it is 172.6 proof?
That's the thing, it's pretty much widely known/accepted that anything with that high an alcohol content taste like crap. IE: Bacardi 151, grain alcohol, etc.Why not throw out the pretense that alcohol of that strength is tasty and just hit the rubbing alcohol?
Speaking of, I need to go see my Grandpa as it is...... SHould have a few bottles readymmmmmmmmmmmmooonshine
Well to start with, alcohol's such as this are normally used for mixing.Why not throw out the pretense that alcohol of that strength is tasty and just hit the rubbing alcohol?

Give me a nice, smooth bourbon with 35-45% ABV and some actual oak flavor and I'm happy. And I'm pretty sure I can manage to get drunk off it, too.
I knew I was in for something special when I bought this bottle, but I wasn’t quite sure what was going to be special about it. Was it the incredibly complex nose? Or perhaps roaring flavor that lasts on your tongue? Simply, it is a combination of these two things mixed with the fact that they were able to produce such an incredibly delicious bourbon at such a high proof. I find it hard to compare this to any other bourbon because the experience of drinking it by itself is truly unique, and it shines a light on the many possibilities available in bourbon production. This comes out once a year as a special release, and I am going to make certain that I get at least one bottle next year. This is truly an outstanding spirit.
Let's try quoting the whole thing next time

Where do I start with this one? I guess the first thing that most people notice is that this bourbon packs an enormous kick; at 143% proof, it is the strongest whiskey I’ve ever heard of, but even so, it remains remarkably smooth (considering its proof).

Well it certainly isn't NEWCASTLE. I'm a bit more picky with my bourbon than I am with NEWCASTLE.Crabjoe is a bourbon pvssy.

that - I got a bottle of full strength Laphroaig, and it really needs some water to make it tastyThat's the thing, it's pretty much widely known/accepted that anything with that high an alcohol content taste like crap. IE: Bacardi 151, grain alcohol, etc.
