The alcohol found in all alcohol beverages – whether beer, wine or distilled spirits – is always ethanol or ethyl alcohol. It is the other ingredients of each beverage that affect the taste.
However, where alcohol can differ is in its quality. Non-commercially produced alcohol – sometimes called moonshine – and illicit, counterfeit or smuggled beverages, can be lower in quality, contaminated or even toxic. The World Health Organisation estimates that about 50 percent of the alcohol consumed worldwide is non-commercially produced. As alcohol beverages in this category are not regulated and held to the same health and safety standards as commercial alcohol, some beverages in this category can represent a serious public health concern.
What is important to remember is that alcohol is alcohol. There are no ‘safer’ forms of alcohol, regardless of whether you drink beer wine or spirits. What ultimately matters is how much you drink, not what you drink
