I love whiskey and I love cans, but I'm struggling with this one!

To steal a line from Metallica who stole a line from Thin Lizzy I'd rather have my "whiskey in a jar".

...who stole a line from a traditional Irish Pub tune!

Ed;

the dif is that the Jack is mixed with cola, and has the same alcoholic content as a wine cooler or beer. That can of Scotch is nothing but whisky, probably around 80 proof.

No mixer? ###?

I don't get it. No way to reseal it after it's open. So unless you are going to drink 12 ounces of whiskey, what's the point of the can? Novelty?

Ed;

Haven't you ever known any hard core alcoholics? I know several people that could polish off that can in one evening and live to tell about it. Me, I'd be under the table before it was half empty, but I'm a lightweight.
