The Last One

Back in the days when I was gainfully employed, a colleague at Citroen Denmark sent me a case of these 500ml cans of 'lubricant' for Christmas.
I'm not sure what they were meant to lubricate at 36% proof - but they certainly warmed the 'cockles' when out walking on the moors.
The label translates something like 'LUBRICANT, refined bitter, enjoy at room temperature. 50cl (500ml) 36% vol.'.  Allegedly the - unauthorised -   'deception' was to facilitate the distribution of a high alcohol drink without attracting too heavy a taxation levy - allegedly :-)
This is the last can - I would think it will still be drinkable but I'm not altogether sure.  Maybe it is best to be kept as a memento ..... :-)
