I can't recall how it affected my IBS, but have you tasted the stuff? It tastes like rubbing alcohol to me. It's REALLY potent and I don't think it tastes good.

Yeah, it is an acquired taste. Abby, as I just told someone else, I'm afraid that there are no "safe" drinks. I mean obviously avoid cream drinks and carbonated drinks, but really I found out the hard way that even an occasional glass of wine irritated my stomach lining enough that I'd end up getting really bad cramps and pain and sometimes D, usually a day or two AFTER the drink.
Now, there's a number of people here that DO cheat with liquor and if they do pay a little they consider it worth the price. I wish I was one of them, but I'm not, and Heather's not and based on her experience helping thousands of people she says it's one of the Seven Sneaky IBS Sins!!
You'll just have to make your own decision. But taste someone else's sake before ordering it yourself. EWWWW!

Well, kinda. I love sake. I've never actually had a problem with it, but I'll repeat what's already been said anyway: there are no "safe" alcoholic beverages, categorically, no matter what they're made from. If you want to try it, make sure you have some solubles in you before you do! Typically, when I've had sake, I've had it with plenty of rice, and I've been ok.
