#2 I'll drink to that. Skyy is yet another reason I don't quite recommend nuking Baghdad by the Bay and being done with it, something like God's willingness to spare Sodom if 10 righteous men could be found there (Gen. 18:32).
They were out of luck, but Frisco may scrape by with some righteous booze.

#4 The laws surrounding ethanol are bizarre indeed. If you ever visit a plant that makes grain alcohol, they usually make it both for liquor and industrial use, since its the same stuff.

On the plant grounds, the alcohol must be strictly accounted for, inspected and certified, to insure that not a drop is diverted to illegal beverages.

The pipeline transporting the alcohol on plant grounds is covered with inspection stickers and labels certifying that there are no illegal taps on it. However, as soon as the pipeline passes through the perimeter fence, it just becomes an ordinary industrial product that nobody gives two hoots about.

#5 I don't drink hard liquor, but if I need to buy vodka, I'll buy this brand.

#6 I drank to that last night and Skyy it was. Tasty. Interesting story too behind the product and the man who "invented" it. Best of all, it's practically a hometown (San Francisco) product for me. I pass by it everyday on way to work.

#7 They were out of luck, but Frisco may scrape by with some righteous booze. A good bottle of Anchor Steam helps too. Plus they never call it "Frisco"

#8 Moose, industrial alcohol is usually dosed with traces of denatonium benzoate, which is incredibly bitter, and methanol, which is poisonous.
