Drank the riotously disgusting Chinese Firewater
Boy was it foul. Tastes how you'd expect engine degreasant to taste, and probably was developed with that in mind originally. Totally safe though, as it's ISO9001 accredited.

Oooh, I think I tried some of that - should have suspected when the bar staff gave me a free shot and then lined up to watch me drink it.
NOTHING takes the taste away - no water, not beer, not spirits, not cigarettes, not vomit. Sad times.

Have you ever had Stroh?
The barmaid told someone who ordered it it tasted of strawberries. I actually stood and waited and watched as they drank it.

Was it as good a laugh as it sounds?

Stroh is nasty, it's true.
But it's not the sheer concnetrated awful of this stuff.

This stuff is probably worse than meths
I've got a bit left if you want to try it?

Is it a kind of Maotai?
Because you can keep that to yourself, ta. Once was enough.

Mautai is nice
It's just a bit of an...acquired taste.

Chuh Yeh Ching is probably easier to drink. (That's the honey-based one, if I remember correctly)

Worse than Stroh?!
Bloody hell. I had to have that stuff on Pub Golf. Chased it with a double vodka lemonade and in 20 mins I couldn't see.

Were you out with Chompy?
If so, that wasn't Stroh
