The "non drinking" alcohol can make you blind or kill you

But some folks just know better. Also know as "a little chlorine for the gene pool"

I don't think your local distillery is ginning up Methanol; the wood alcohol which is the poisonous one. Ethanol AKA Everclear etc. is probably the base for that sanitizer. If there are no other additives like lotions or surfactants or gelling agents it would make an excellent cocktail.

It says "do not drink" and that's enough for me. I'm a beer guy anyway

Some of the distillers in Texas are doing that, too. Full bottles will become collectors items in the future. Shutting down the country will make the history books. I've got some WWII ration coupons that I inherited from my grandparents. Collectors items.

The only time I ever got a flu shot was the year I had to do chemotherapy. Never got the flu. Always said that the key was to keep enough alcohol in the system. 🥃🥃🥃

When the Wu flu threat was just cranking up, I figured I'd stock up on cold and flu medicine, but couldn't find zinc lozenges, which I remember using for a sore throat decades ago. Checked Amazon, sure enough....found them, and these have vitamin C and echinacea in them I got 4 bottles, delivered today.

the zinc lozenges usually stopped a sore throat from becoming anything worse, if I was consistent about using them.

Dogfish Head is doing it.
Wish I could get my hands on a bottle, but I'm thinking that won't happen.
