If it is really "anhydrous" or "absolut" ethanol, it may be fit for
drinking, if you water it down. But normally its too expensive for
drinking, as it is specially purified to remove the last ~4% of water you
cant distill off. If its not that expensive it may be denatured. In
austria e.g. the absolut ethanol is taxed like spirits of wine which is
drinkable.
