Ethanol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (4617 words)
Ethanol, also known as ethyl alcohol or grain alcohol, is a flammable, tasteless, colorless, mildly toxic chemical compound with a distinctive odor, one of the alcohols that is most often found in alcoholic beverages.
Most alcoholic beverages can be broadly classified as fermented beverages, beverages made by the action of yeast on sugary foodstuffs, or as distilled beverages, beverages whose preparation involves concentrating the ethanol in fermented beverages by distillation.
Alcoholic drinks have a large variety of tastes because various flavor compounds are dissolved during brewing.
Tankard (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (117 words)
After losing their guitarist because of their image as a bunch of drunks, they moved on to issue their first record in 1986.
From that point on, the band has continuously made songs and records in the same style they started out with - fast metal songs in honor of alcohol.
Thus they claim to have invented a new genre called "alcoholic metal".
