At last night’s Dive Bar Tasting Labs, we gathered a frightening array of cheap booze from which many experiments were conducted, data collected and taste buds runied. Our conclusion? Cheap Vodka, even when processed twice through a Brita filter, still tastes like shit. Here’s my photographic documentation of our evening of perverted science and alcoholism, complete with post-apocalyptic backdrop.
Dr. Duncan D’Nuts cautions:
Under no circumstances should these substances be taken while operating heavy machinery or stolen police vehicles. Nursing mothers should exercise caution if unfiltered alcohol is to be ingested along with a prescribed smoking regimen. May cause drowsiness or death. Clinical studies indicate that “Night Train is a mean wine.”

it takes 6! filtrations to get it right ;-)
Seriously, for a party we tried this one out back in I believe November and we put some skanky stuff through the brita 6 times before it was palatable… I’m not saying it would compare to the good stuff, but it definitely made it usable in mixed drinks.
Needless to say we killed the filter in the process (yes I tried it with water just to see, curiousity and all that)
So came to this page when looking for the status of the closing of the odeon and chicken john and so on.
But to comment on your experiemnt,..
the process requires 6 to 7 full filtrations to really make a large improvement.
I have a bottle of vodka that started out as rothschilds (10 dollar half gallon) and ended up with the purity and clarity of a ketel one.
And having now mellowed in the freezer for a couple of months it has improved even further.
so thems the shits.
Must filter it at least 6 times for it to work properly
so there.
