Who could want for more than a hot Pasty, a hard working yooper woman, and a hot, relaxing visit to the sauna?
This is gold.
I'll agree I'm showing northern stupidity, if you agree you're showing the southern form. At least northern stupidity requires a college degree.
Apparently it is left up to the states and Alabama is the only one that prohibits it. Wikipedia claims there are several homebrew stores in the state tho so apparently it is not enforced?
Look at one of the historical concerns of moonshine; blindness from additives to increase the alcohol content. These additives like methanol and lye are nasty stuff...adding them into something you drink doesn't equate being terribly bright.
Alabama and Mississippi are embarrassments to this great nation of ours. Those so-called representatives, who wouldn't be able to get a job flipping burgers at Checkers in most of the rest of the nation, were put in power by the electorate. 'Nuff said.
I've got to say, you are way out of line. I am a highly educated and proud Alabamian. Yes we have our political issues but where do you get off saying we are embarrassments to this nation? We're not all uneducated hillbillies living in trailers on dirt roads, in fact most of us aren't.
That being said, yes these fools have been voted into office and that I am not proud of. As a Democrat living in the south I understand the plight of the rebellion. But maybe one of these years a decent homebrew bill will get through the legislature.

remember election day is coming.
how can you ban mead, when you dont even know what it is. scumbags.
alabama is dumb.
and their accents are dumber.
maybe we should start a facebook thing(i dont have one, but i'll make one) and get a couple hundred thousand homebrewers to unite into one voice, and scream at these idiots.

My favorite part was how easy it will be for minors to get beer if homebrewing is legal. "They just have to find someone to make it for them" - it's like they think brewing is baking cookies. Sorry sir, but I don't think any high schooler is going to go through the trouble of getting somebody to make them beer and wait a month when they can just give the hobo outside the liquor store a $20 and walk away with a case of natty.
Right, but you (and most of the people here) don't ge to vote for them. And the people who do live there and do get to vote for them probably agree with them. It is Democracy: the right to limit your rights as long as the majority agrees.
Homebrewing is such a small thing compared to real issues, honestly.
As far as the North/South thing: Those in the North, like myself, ought to watch themselves a bit, there are plenty of intelligent people down south, and it's unfair to stereotype them all as a bunch of ignorant Bible-thumpin' inbred hillbillies. Those in the South, you also need to recognize there are significant social and cultural problems that go beyond what exists in other parts of the country, and furthermore that there are far too many ignorant Bible-thumpin' inbred hillbillies around those parts.
....Just because homebrewing is legal where you live now, does not mean it will always be in the future.
