I’ve read that horses’ guts convert a significant portion of the more complex molecules in the grains they consume into alcohol for easier absorbtion, so I’d contest that alcohol is.... definitely-maybe-okay for donkeys?

I defer to anyone interested enough to fact check us.

Edit; u/EvMund pointed us toward [Hindgut fermentation](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindgut_fermentation) and corrected me; looks like horses don’t do the autobrewery thing. Though I would point out alcohol can  be absorbed through all membranes including  the colon- alcohol just doesn’t make it that far... if injested orally.
