You can't drink cheap vodka neat, as it is wank.

The good stuff at the right temperature though is worth checking out if you havn't.

On a budget, you're probably better off with carb cleaner.

Definately

Actually in a pub, you're probably more likely to find CO2 (Carbon Dioxide), as it is (or was when I worked there) used to keep the lager/bitter tanks pressurised. CO2 is denser than air, so it settles on or near the ground, which is pretty lethal because first you'd pass out, and then hit the deck, where the saturation of CO2 would be even greater ... one of the first things I learnt in the trade was to properly ventilate the cellar when de-pressurising the tanks ... and then generally to stay well out of the way for 10 minutes.

But as MissYC says, neither is a good way to go

The big myth is that beer is watered down, now line cleaner is a different matter.

Many things can happen at many different points to allow line cleaner to stay in the lines from machine/equipment failure to human error and believe me when I say beer line cleaner is not mild. If you get it on your skin you can feel it eating your skin away (that slimy feeling is not the cleaner, it's your skin), it'll bleach your clothes easily and if you happen to wipe down the top of toilet cisterns with it, you can make coke heads have serious nose bleeds!


I have had some half-wit at my pub serve a pint of line cleaning solution to a customer as an ale, god knows how he didn't smell it even if the solution was slightly murky!


To answer your question, line cleaner will make your throat very sore as it will strip some of the skin off and can leave it inflamed, how much cleaner you have consumed will determine how bad your symptoms get/got!
