it's supposed to be a seven letter word with the fourth letter being "a". I thought ethanol fit..
It looks like ethanol is correct as the definition identifies it as the intoxicating agent in liquors.
OK, I'm getting mixed messages here. I'm going to go with ethanol unless I find a better solution.
