Cosmic 'Booze' Created In Quantum Brewery

./ editors have a special liver that can process it.

If memory serves, the trick to avoiding ill effects with methanol is to not process it. Methanol itself isn't that nasty, with initial effects approximately equivalent to the same amount of ethanol(so you can drink yourself to death; but it takes some work); but you metabolize it into delicious formic acid, which proceeds to do you no good at all. If you can avoid metabolizing it, you'll excrete it reasonably quickly without substantial further harm.

Fomepizole is the fancy, expensive, science-tastic alcohol
