Ok So im sure this topic has been brougt up before .... but i ran into this last nigh...
Im sitting in a brew pub in a small town in Northern nevada (the only place with craft beer in our town) talking with a buddy of mine about the Cider im making at home, when a guy leans in and asks about it. I explain to him about how i home brew bla bla bla the cider im making etc. He replys
" Thats cool, why dont you brew the good s*** like I do, I make MoonShine!"
I just laughed my Arse off - HE takes me to my truck and wants to sell me some of his "Home made moon shine" which turns out to be just Apple juice and Everclear mixed in a mason jar with a cinnimin stick put in it. I know this ... he doesnt know I know this ..... I ask what kinda still he uses etc = and he says " A big Tank " .... Come on dude I was born in GA and my Great Grandad used to make this stuff for real (Not like the stupid TV Show) heck when we were kids we simulated a still with a Pressure cooker of moms.
Anyways im done ranting... What do you guys say to IDIOTS like this who think they brew MOONSHINE but yet have no idea about yeast, home brew methods, what kinda equipment is used etc..... So tired of these guys - I run into idiots like this all over Nevada (im sure they are elsewhere)
Oh and telling them its illegal to distill a whiskey just leads to made up clauses in the law that allows them to do so ..... because they are just that BAD A** .... WTF OVER
