This stuff should be quite tame then.It's all that sugar in it. Not good for the hangover at all. I've tried more honey, less honey and more is better...but more painful in the morning.
I've also done VERY strong (think 60-70%) and it wasn't drinkable. So I try to cut it down to 40-50% (by math, don't have a way to measure it) and it's much better.
