Dear WW: just to be preposterous, a couple of guys in my unit in Philippines were "tubalent" all the time we were on Leyte. This was intoxication they claimed was induced by "tuba" which was fermented cocoanut milk made by the natives. But when we had to move our supplies by ship to go to Manila, it was discovered that in spite of having been in a chickenwire protected enclosure, all of the five gallon cans of laboratory alcohol were empty. Evidently a pole with a nail had been used to puncture them, and a pole with a cup used to catch the contents.
