Bored of drinking booze?

[Jazzy]

At London’s latest pop-up, you don’t even have to lift a finger to get drunk. That’s how far we’ve come.

Instead of drinking your pricey cocktail, you can now inhale it.

The idyllic sounding Alcoholic Architecture ‘walk-in cloud bar’ is the brainchild of food scientists Bompas and Parr, and offers a ‘fully immersive alcohol environment’.

Spirits and mixers are turned into a fine ‘cocktail cloud’, with the help of humidifiers.

With humidity at around 140 per cent, visitors can then absorb the cocktails through their lungs and eyeballs. Nice. Here comes the alcoholic mist:

Bypassing the liver means you will get drunk more quickly – it apparently takes about 40 minutes to absorb one very large drink. So, breathe responsibly.

Customers will have to wear protective suits so their clothing doesn’t get damaged by the high humidity, and will only be able to spend an hour at a time enjoying the thick boozy mist.

The bar launches in London’s Borough Market on July 31, on the site of an ancient monastery, and will be open for six months. It’s £10 per session.

Err, right. Perhaps someone’s had their head in the cocktail cloud a little too long to come up with this? runk2:

Your thoughts?

If this method of consumption bypasses the liver, does that eliminate the risk of a liver cirrhosis? :unsure2:

That statement in the story is scientifically invalid, and would be retracted if their editorial board did its job.

Alcohol is metabolized through the liver, that organ has NOTHING to do with the process of GETTING intoxicated.

Regardless, this fact remains:

Drink Like A Man!
