altering the mind, an upgrade not to be dismissed.

For you information :-

Although the short-term health effects of formaldehyde exposure are well known, less is known about its potential long-term health effects. In 1980, laboratory studies showed that exposure to formaldehyde could cause nasal cancer in rats. This finding raised the question of whether formaldehyde exposure could also cause cancer in humans. In 1987, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) classified formaldehyde as a probable human carcinogen under conditions of unusually high or prolonged exposure (1). Since that time, some studies of industrial workers have suggested that formaldehyde exposure is associated with nasal cancer and nasopharyngeal cancer, and possibly with leukemia. In 1995, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) concluded that formaldehyde is a probable human carcinogen. However, in a reevaluation of existing data in June 2004, the IARC reclassified formaldehyde as a known human carcinogen (2).

I'd advise that you don't drink it!
 
Thanks Robbo. I'm pretty sure there wasn't any formaldehyde in the drink, it's just that the jars look like specimen jars. Still tastes revolting though.

All I'll add is that after swilling tuak at an unwarranted rate of knots, hearing The Cranberry's Zombie for the first time, on a boombox in a longhouse deep in the heart of Borneo, seemed a religious experience.

I was there over 2 years. Not a good thing, from my liver/ cerebral cortex' point of view :D
