TDYER63 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 If it worked it would be the perfect invention but I am pretty sure the alcohol industry would ensure it never saw the light of day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huddersfield Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 What I need is something where I can drive to my local (meaning I don't have to climb up that bloody steep hill), down a cocktail of Old Eli, Leadboiler & wash it down with an Enoch's Hammer, not die, then wait 5 minutes & be sober enough to drive home. Is that what this does? If so, I'm in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the flavour in the drinks that will change this. Will taste the same as a pint of beer once developed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt anyone would choose to drink alcohol if it didnt make you feel relaxed/drunk. However I doubt this will ever make it to market. Many people are put off alcohol because of the hangovers. Can you imagine the chaos that could be caused to society if everyone was getting steaming every night of the week knowing they could wake up fresh as a daisy next morning. I would not be surprised if there was something already out there which was deliberately being withheld for that reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 It's a pretty shit name as well. It's not alcohol. It's just another drug to add to the list of many available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This synthetic alcohol has a maximum dosage so its not possible to get off your face with it. Drinking more just keeps you at the peak. It will make it to market and will be there alongside real alcohol, just like vapes and real fags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would expect that the alcohol industry would view Alcarelle as its nemesis, but Orren says that industry players “are approaching us as potential investing collaborators”. This doesn’t surprise Jonny Forsyth, a global drinks analyst at Mintel. “The industry is increasingly investing in alcohol alternatives,” he says. “We have seen a lot of investment in cannabis … They’re looking at nonalcoholic gins and soft drinks because they know people are drinking less [alcohol], and this is a trend that is going to carry on. If the science is right, and if it’s easy to mask the taste, I think it’s got a great chance.” Edited December 29, 2019 by Bonny79 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my own inventions take off I could be necking back Alcarelle every night, playing running golf every morning hangover free, and languishing on my tummy on a sun bed all afternoon reading about my huge profits through the hole at my head.

davy-hay Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Update today So much news! Alcarelle is rebranding as GABA Labs. This reflects the focus of our work (ie GABA and GABAergics), our scientific credentials and our ambitions to get GABA into mainstream discussion. Check out www.gabalabs.com. GABA Labs is launching a drinks company - The Social Drinks Company. And they're bringing out a new botanical drink called Sentia (www.sentiaspirits.com) later in January, based on a GABA Labs active botanical ingredient. Last bit of news is that Professor David Nutt is appearing on UK Channel4's flagship consumer food program "Food Unwrapped" at 8pm UK time on Monday, 11th Jan. He'll be talking about our botanical research work and the ingredients licensed for the Sentia drink. FYI, GABA Labs' primary focus will be the ingredient "Alcarelle", which obviously is a few year away because of the regulatory frameworks. Our new FB page is www.facebook.com/gabalabs.science. Thanks for your patience :¬) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
