Ok...I have to tell this story, in hopes it may bring a chuckle or two.
My wife and I have been together 48 years now (don't laugh yet...that's not the funny part
). In the early 70s she decided to make dandelion wine. So I helped pick dandelions and get ingredients. From memory sugar, lemons, oranges, yeast...so long ago can't remember how, but at her parents house in town they had this huge jar about 5-6 gallons at least.
We of course didn't know what we were doing, but I remember after so many days it was like a giant lava lamp, this gunk slowly floating up, bubbling, gunk sinking back down. At some point it was very full, so I tilted it over put some in a glass.
It was horrible like I would guess battery acid would be like.
One night we're watching the "lava lamp" in action and a knock at kitchen door. It was the neighborhood drunk! He says "heard you guys are makin' some hootch here!".
I stick a couple of soda straws together for him. He pokes it down in bottle...he takes a swig, pulls straw out and end was melted off!
He says wow-eee that's some gooood stuff! So I helped him carry that heavy bottle down to his place.
She heard later he polished it off. I don't think he lived too long afterwards!

make a certain amount of alcohol a year without problems. The trouble I'm thinking is selling it without Uncle Sucker getting tax revenue.
