    Default aging alcohol

    When alcohol(such as vodka,whiskey,rum) bottled and sealed age?

    Like i have bottles from 30 years ago that i don't know if they are safe to drink, what do you think? Is it okay, or will i get like alcohol poisoning?

    I know this is probably a stupid question but hey.

    And what if the alcohol has evaporated a bit, safe to drink?

    Thanks.

    Alcohol in a bottle for over three decades? Dewd that shit will kill you! One sip and it's basically like getting bit by a thousand tarantulas.

    Basically.

    I heard the older, the better, especially with wine.

    Just wanted to say, your attempt at being humorous was lost on more than just him.
    If you look at the OP's response, he took your answer seriously.


    But yea, it's not going to be bad.
    Archeologists have found wine that came from the Roman empire that was still drinkable.

    And theres even types of alcohol that are not done until they are let to ferment for 50+ years




    But, beer is not the same. Beer has far too low of an alcohol content and is full of stuff that can go bad after time.

    That's why it was so funny, because he actually took me seriously. ;/ That's also why I called Alexander a douche, which also was funny. Do I not entertain youuuuu!?

    no offence but you guys are all noobs

    beer just goes bad with age, it will taste nasty as ****

    wine only gets stronger if its in a wooden container (a barrel). if its in a bottle then it CANNOT get stronger unless you add more sugar or some shit. most likely your wine will just cork and go bad and taste crappy.

    as for spirits like scotch.... **** knows, although that can also go bad.

    time = more alcohol content/better flavour is FALSE for a great many things. there have to be specific storing situations.

    noobs.

    Answer: Wrong.


    Correction - Glass still holds the same potency for the liquid inside so long as it is not kept in Sunlight.


    ChickenDewd, you aren't funny. That's all.
