Visiting in Oklahoma, and had a chance to tour a "factory" where one of my high school buddies makes moonshine. Brewing techniques are similar but carried a step further, distillation. Doesn't have to worry too much about getting odd tastes and flavoring, just get those little yeasties making some alcohol, works it about two weeks, then transfers it to a still to boil off and capture the straight stuff. Re-uses the yeast bed up to seven times.
Makes a powerful drink straight up. He also takes some of it, dilutes it by half, adds come cinnamon oil extract and markets it as a "ladies whiskey", only about 90 proof.
Very interesting.
