Are you fucking serious?
They lifted the sanctions on alcohol content to like 40 percent on fucking beer here a few stones throws away.
I have been alot happier with my booze quality since then.
Dude, why don't you just buy ice beers or wine? It is actually a bit cheaper if you just drop 5 bucks on something 15 percent or so and you do not get hangovers as bad or put on weight.
I drink something over 6 percent when I want lager which I supplement with liquor is what I drink about half the time. The other half is sour mash and cheap wine.
It does not have to be expensive to be good.
