Isopropyl Alcohol Anhydrous and USP grades are colorless, volatile, flammable liquids with a very slight odor. Unlike ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol has a bitter taste, some undesirable side effects and little ability to produce exhilaration. As a result, the U.S. government does not regulate or tax its manufacture or sale.
