Is this stuff for real? It's powdered alcohol, scheduled to start sales in the US later this year. Here's a link:

I can only imagine that this stuff is akin to the GBL+water=GHB reaction, but with the final product as alcohol, as ethanol is not a solid at room temperature, and even 200 proof spirits would only reduce 60% the volume of 80 proof, and definitely NOT be a powder that could be stored in a Kool-Aid sized pack at anywhere near room temperature, even commercial freezers wouldnt work. Ethanol is C2H5OH, water is H20, Palcohol is about 50% alcohol by weight (70% by volume) so the powder must be C2H3O or something close. I googled it, got C2H3O2, which is acetate ion. Anyway, not looking for a synth here, just some thoughts on if this stuff might be good, if it's currently legal (or available) anywhere, trip reports, experiences, etc.
