There are some alcoholic beverages that one can easily tolerate, and then there are others that can actually kill you. Yes, I’m referring to the incredibly intoxicating beverages that are straight from hell.
Overdosing on alcohol is not unusual. Recall your most recent weekend! The alcohol content of the drinks we often use to pass out ranges from 8 to 25 percent. Okay, no more than 40%. Since the likelihood that you will pass out increases with increasing alcohol by volume (ABV), it is rare to find anything over 40% in bars (unless on demand).
