So far, the reviewers have been glowing about drinking it.

interesting to note that the process of distillation removes radioactive particles from the product, making it safe to drink

[–] [email protected] 21 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Not drinking vodka made from radioactive grain is even more safe.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago (2 children)

If distilling removes the radioactive particles, then no, it isn't.

Not drinking vodka is more safe than drinking vodka

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago (1 children)

True, but it comes with the downside of not drinking vodka.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago

I need some vodka to deal with this

in chemistry, nothing is 100%

...And that is why I hate chemistry.
It's just alchemy disguised as a science.

you’re welcome, spooge

Unless there's tritium in it (which is unlikely, half-life is too short)

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

There could also be ^14^C, a beta emitter with a half life of 5730 years.

How it tastes?

Not great, not terrible.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Its been measured at 3.6% ABV

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

But this equipment only measures up to 3.6% ABV!

We got the high-range boozimeter from the safe, but it burned out instantly.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Probably got a bad one the. Mother Russia make great Potato

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'm guessing this is a reference, but im not putting 2 and 2 together.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Isn't most vodka around 40% abv?

Edit: Found their website https://www.atomikvodka.com/

Buy our unique 5x distilled Apple Spirit (42% ABV) and the First Release of our new Apple Brandy (42% ABV) aged in Ukrainian oak

Looks like 42% ABV

Ah that makes sense. Gotta add it to my long list of things I should watch

Nuka Cola (High Proof)?

I thought vodka was made with potatoes.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Anything containing sugar can be turned into alcohol. Some easier than others.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Sure, but what makes vodka vodka and not, say, brandy or moonshine if not the starting material you're fermenting?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

Vodka is pretty much just ethanol. It doesn't have (and isn't supposed to have) any taste or smell.

It can be made with pretty much everything.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Processes. Vodka is just neutral spirits. Think of what makes whisky whisky.

[–] not_so_handsome_jack 1 points 3 days ago

It can be made with either! I think most vodka you get (at least in the US) is made with grain, but there are distillers who specifically make potato vodka, too.

Too bad the boar doesn't have extra legs.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

Wonder how that'd affect the sales. Could either become local flop or a worldwide hit.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Make a Molotov cocktail outta that stuff and you could level Moscow! Running away fast enough is a problem.

[–] TriflingToad 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

this should've been an energy drink, I've been saying dor years how Monster tastes like radiation or electricity

Granted Atomik is a fire name for a radiation vodka though, so they got me beat in that department

[–] gravitas_deficiency 13 points 4 days ago

You’ll be drunk for the rest of your life!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

Why do I really want to drink it? The distillation removes any radioactive particles making it safe to drink. And it just seems so fucking metal??

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

Do the farmers have to wear hazmat suits?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 days ago (2 children)

It's true what they say: Russians and vodka don't mix. It's like eating a spoonful of Drano; sure, it'll clean you out, but it'll leave you hollow inside.
