Walk-in cocktail creates a boozy atmosphere

• http://www.gizmag.com, By Stu Robarts

Well soon you'll be able to have a whole roomful of it. The Alcoholic Architecture bar is a walk-in cocktail that lets guests breathe in a cloud of alcoholic mist. Alcohol is absorbed into the bloodstream via the lungs and eyes.

Designed by Bompas & Parr, Alcoholic Architecture is described as the "world's first alcoholic weather system for your tongue, where meteorology and mixology collide." It is based on the concept of scaling up a cocktail to an inhabitable size.

Bompas & Parr says that, having been run once previously in 2009, the idea has had six years of further development. Based next to the UK's earliest gothic cathedral and on the site of an ancient monastery at London's Borough Market, the bar will open later this month and the drinks list will be entirely comprised of spirits and beers created by monks, including Chartreuse, Benedictine, Trappist beer and Buckfast.
