Everclear
Ever finished a bottle? Yourself?
I haven't, (I'm out after 3 shots) but I have a friend that can do a fifth and still stand.
Everclear is 160 proof grain alcohol for those who live in a cave.

Although my room is littered with animal droppings, has old bones in a corner and an abandoned campfire, I wouldn't call it a cave.
Yet still I haven't heard about this number before - 160 - in a conversation about the alcoholes. What does it symbolize?

proof is 2x the percentage of alcohol. Don't ask.
So 160 proof = 80% alcohol.

oh, and in answer to the actual question behind the thread, i could do about (roughly, this was about 4 years ago) i could probably do about 15 to 20 shots of the stuff without throwing up, standing however, would probably have been beyond me

well first year of uni white 151 was all we drank.
then near the end of the year someone splurged on dark :P
best time ever was when we decided to bbq at the lake.. at midnight. within an hour everything was frozen. and i mean everything.. except for the 151 \o/
we had burgers.. the ketchup and mustard froze.. so that made things difficult.. and we were drinking. one of hte guys brought a jug of this tequila mix.. it was great. then finally all we had left for alcohol was the 151. and i suggested 'let's just shoot that!' so we did. my friend tracy took a shot then went to chase it with lemon juice (that's all we had left for chasers) but it was frozen.. lol.. then no one else wanted a shot without chasers.. but i did some \o/
fs you needed the 151 to stay warm :\

if I recall, the proof is to do with the amount of water that could be added and still have it burn. or something like that.
so 20% proof would be that you can add 20% extra water and it still burns.

god no. I'm crazy not stupid. Its in the house for other purposes. (if i was to use it in a drink, i would add it to somthing, so it would be diluted.) Anyways, i can't imagine anyone drinking any proof everclear.

actually i think the story is, if you put whiskey on gunpowder, and the gunpowder still burned when lit, then that was proof that the whiskey was good. or somthing. could be an urban legend.
