Plastic has certain chemical substances (ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid) which has the tendency to leach to considerable extent if alcohol is stored for a longer period of time . Though it is deemed safe to store at room temperature, increase in the temperature may lead to leaching of chemicals into the drink.

Alcohol can be stored in a special type of plastic. It's known as PET (polyethylene terephthalate, semicrystalline), and it is compatible with 1-100% ethyl alcohol holding. Ethanol does not dissolve this type of plastic.

Most beverage companies use PET bottles, coke and Pepsi for example.
Manufacturers produce alcohol in can and glass because it's more asthetic.

Ok, I was reading somewhere some scientists were of the opinion that drinking water from an actual glass bottled water is way more healthier compared to plastic bottled water .

A simple Google search turned out this:

"3. BPA generation. Chemicals like Biphenyl A, which is an estrogen-mimicking chemical, can lead to health problems such as diabetes, obesity, fertility problems, behavioral problems, and early puberty in girls. It's better not to store and drink water from a plastic bottle."

"Bottled water is laced with harmful chemicals such as phthalates which have been linked to an increased risk of cancer."

"It's better not to store and drink water from a plastic bottle. 4. Liver cancer and reduced sperm count: Because of presence of a chemical ..."

At this point, Google Searching should be the simplest digital skill to possess.

By the way, a glass bottle never/rarely contains BPA.

Ironically, most houses in Nigeria, even modern ones still use PVC for their water system.

And when these beer men and women get very sick, you will be the one to be leave every other thing you are doing and be taking care of them in the hospitals, right?
