Everclear is probably the strongest, like everyone else, as at all the frat parties I went to made a trashcan punch with it. But saying that in Finland I had some homemade stuff that was really strong. Also in Finland at a party I was given some stuff that got me so drunk I threw up all over myself. Not my finest hour.i have no idea the proof but it was strong.
 
I'm going to guess and say some homemade blackberry wine that was apparently in a demijohn in a friend's garage for 10 years at least.

It was basically a port that fucking burned something rotten.
 
I think anyone who is more than a social drinker has tried everclear, it's a right of passage of alcoholism after all. The highest alcohol drink I regularly drink is a gin that I think it's like 54% alcohol, but it doesn't taste that way.
 
Some homemade hooch a buddy of mine gave me a long time back. Pretty sure that shit wasn't all that safe to drink but it wasn't bad either.
 
This lovely bottle of Pálinka:

...in order to make it to 99+% purity it needs molecular sieving or ethylene hydration and is *not* good for you...
Very true. Even if it is purified using microporous sieving, the "dry" alcohol is harmful to any living tissue, as it wants to remove the water in it in order to form the 95% azeotrope, which is it's naturally minimally hydrated state of ethanol. Of course, any tissue that has its water yanked out through osmosis will likely die from what is essentially instantaneous dehydration. Hence why it's harmful.

Eh, really only time I messed with it was parties or pregaming so I could be drunk enough to think my pick up lines were good.

(pro tip they were)
 
I'm a big fan of everclear. So far I think that Mohawk has the best flavor; it has a sweet finish compared to Everclear brand everclear.
 
Bacardi 151. Never had Everclear, can't buy it in my State and I'm not particularly motivated to buy it "just because".

The flame arrestor on the Bacardi made me laugh a bit when I opened it.

Unrelated, but I cooked with brandy this past weekend, including setting it on fire, for the first time. Kind of startled me at how quickly the flame caught and went up.
 
If you don't have a decent local chemical supply place, or they are the kind of tight asses that only sell to businesses, Everclear is fantastic for cleaning in electronics. You will literally never have a cleaner surface to work with in IT or electronics using it. Studies have actually shown that removing interposing thermal transfrr material using 95% ethanaol before reapplying can actually make a measurable difference in the performance of the new material that is applied after it.

Jungle juice is what got me through med school. Also we swiped lab-grade undenatured ethanol from the lab at one point.

Some gay states even everclear is 151. There's some weird ass law and that's where 151 came from highest proof you can sell.

Flame arrestors also come as a "pour spout thingy" on cheap handles because they don't want college kids dropping a lit match down a gallon of Gordons Gin. But they hawk it like some snobby shit.
 
I dranked the stuff inside an old thermometer and now I can see the future.
 
192 proof russian pertsovka. I think the bottle was from the 1930s or 40s, really old shit. I wouldn't recommend drinking more than a shot of it unless you want the worst hangover of your life
 
I've had everclear as my first drink growing up and double strength rum but theyre usually nothing special flavor wise and the strength can take away from the experience except for mixing. My overall favorite strong spirit so far would be baijiu at around 56% but I'd like more recommendations for exotic hard spirits.
Another very strong drink I will absolutely die for is Serbian slivovitz/rakia at around 50%, pure gold

Some Lebanese Arak that was like 65% alcohol. It pretty much tastes like Absinthe, but it's clear until you put ice in it, then it looks milky.
Almost picked up a bottle of that, I love raki so thats right up my alley
