Ethanol is the commonly consumed form of alcohol. Methanol, or wood alcohol, can also be consumed, but is digested slowly and converted to formaldehyde and can cause blindness and death. (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol)
Warning: do not consume pure ethanol, and do not drink denatured alcohol or alcohol used for fuel because it's toxic and can cause blindness or death.
