Is old liquor safe to drink?!

If you don't know much about vintage or fine liquor,don't open it. I would try selling it

Yes, it is safe to drink. No, it does not get stronger with age. Alcohol stops aging once it is bottled. That said, I would probably save them for a special occasion, rather than just drinking them to get drunk.

Alcohol is aged in vats. For one thing, while it is still fermenting the liquid will be expelling air bubbles. If it is sealed up, like in a bottle, it will explode. It is not bottled until the fermentation process stops. Fermentation is the process where yeast turns the sugar into alcohol.

Still good, better if totally sealed than when originally sold. Before you open them, check and see if there is significant value due to vintage. Some of the vintage bottles can be valued at over $50,000. McCormick is a very old brand still sold today.

should be ok, I'd watch out if they were opened before, sometimes old liquor can develop some really nasty tastes.

you can drink it but u will be in the hospital the next day if you arn't already dead.

yep they definitely are. The older they are the drunker they get you.

Alcohol gets stronger with age. So if they're that old, they'll be strong as hell, but still drinkable.

yes! liquor gets better and stronger with age or you can find a online liquor conniseur and sell them for a great price and buy new liquor to party with lol

Smash those puppies down! How old ru?

if it is from the 1850's you might want to try selling it, can be worth quite a bit
