The session starts at 9:00 am and the illegal alien bill comes up first so maybe they will get to ours.

I have a question for those folks living in Alabama. Since it is legal to brew in Colorado, and the wife and I are headed to Alabama next month for a visit with family can I bring beer with me? We are looking at bringing two kegs in a custom keg serving cooler I am building. This beer is to celebrate a graduation for my nephew, and a wedding for my niece but will only be served at my brother in-laws house.
Thanks Dave

Seems like it should be fine, right? You're not brewing in Alabama, just driving some beer across state lines.
Besides, if you get pulled over... That's just Pepsi Cola, sir, in these here Cornies.
3:00pm Central and these goobers are still arguing over the 1st bill of the day.
Actually that story is a bit dated. They're reconsidering the Bastard decision as of yesterday...

The biggest problem is the "morals police". I wrote my rep, but I think he is a solid Bible thumping no. He has voted against every beer related bill that has come up.

Is this just a moral victory for you home brewers? Has anyone actually been convicted of home brewing in LAWL-a-bama?
The Leslie Nielsen pic made me laugh, thanks for that.

What is LAWL-a-bama?
Tali-bamaLOL a bama
yeah.
That's not going to happen.
It's more fun to homebrew when you could get in trouble for it anyway.
No, not a moral victory.. I had to search for it, but I remember awhile back reading this thread.

There is a section of Alabama law that defines what beer is, what wine is, what fortified wine is, etc. There is no provision for mead, or for any alcohol fermented from honey. I don't think this bill, if passed, will work - does anyone know if the ABC board has been consulted on this?
ABC has been closely consulted and have introduced their own changes (this bill includes a legal definition for mead)...
ABC has been closely consulted and have introduced their own changes (this bill includes a legal definition for mead). The beer distributors also had their say in the bill (they didn't want homebrewers giving away beer in ways that cut into their profits) and have signed off on the bill. The homebrewers aren't thrilled with the current version of it, but we'll take not being felons. So, yes, all directly affected parties are fully aware of what's in the bill and have approved it. The only group actively opposing it is ALCAP ("Alabama's Moral Compass"), which opposes any alcohol bill anyway.
