    Isn’t the difference that a jaegerbomb is something that’s made yourself (or by the bartender) while four loko was a prepackaged product? I can make an explosive from stuff I buy from the hardware store, doesn’t mean theyre going to ban stump remover any time soon.

      Possibly? In my experience I’ve never seen anyone make Jagerbombs at home though. It’s almost always made by the bartender. It could be argued that a bartender could make the drinks with less alcohol in them but how often does that actually happen?

          They’re still legal. Making explosives yourself is illegal, not just buying them premade is.

        I’ve made them at home. And at bars in my area, you could order a jaggermeister and a red bull, but the bar tender would serve them separately and you’d have to combine them yourself.

          Where I live they are happy to mix them for you right there at the bar and they will keep serving them until you either run out of money or become unruly enough to throw out. It usually resulted in a number of people running around like the Tasmanian Devil by the end of the night
