Are any alcohols a stimulant?

I heard there is a certain alcohol that is a stimulant rather than a depressant like all other alcohols, but I can't remember which one it is.

No. Alcohol itself is a depressant, not a stimulant. Any alcoholic beverage is, therefore, a depressant. Sometimes you may *think* alcohol stimulates you, but what it does is depress the parts of your brain that you use to make your decisions and the mask the physical effects you are experiencing. That explains the loudmouth drunk who thinks he/she is impressing everyone with their eloquence and philosophical ideas. The don't know they are talking like idiots and everyone is actually laughing at them. Then there's the drunk who feels stimulated and physically at the top of his game. He probably will be surprised that he can't 'perform' for his lady when they go home because he feels like a 'real man'. That's also the person who is stimulated and feels very capable of driving home. That is the person who gets charged with DUI or maybe kills someone in an accident on the way home. In the movies the mountain rescue dog carries a small keg of brandy to stimulate and warm up an avalanche victim. Actually it would slow down the circulatory system and the person would be more likely to freeze to death. If someone claims that any alcoholic beverage is a stimulant, that person doesn't know what he/she is talking about. That could only be the case if they used the booze to wash down some powerful stimulant drugs. :-)
