For the record, to anyone looking this up...I drank with this stuff and got SUPER sick. I'm quite the drinker and I can certainly hold my booze. I WAS drinking fast for the night, so I was also drunk...but most of it was from the combination. I've drank enough in my life to know.

About 2 hours in I got the spins so bad I couldn't open my eyes. I went outside for some fresh air and spent the next hour or so throwing up behind a bowling alley sleeping on the ground because I was too dizzy to move.

So, no. Don't drink with it. I'm not the only one this has happened to, I've looked around the internet and its a common reaction.
