dangerous ideas

It's probably for the best that there is no legal way to distill spirits in the US, otherwise I'd feel compelled to make (and post about, in tedious detail) twinkieshine.

I guess you could move to New Zealand for a bit.

Yes. Yes it is.

Meh, *now* you worry about legality. Besides, government sanctioned twinkieshine just wouldn't be the same -- it tastes better if it's a felony.

The color on that would be highly disturbing.

Just because science can, does not mean science should.

If there's a culinary or drunkard's hell, you're going there for that.

It is entirely possible that America's history of distillery-related jurisprudence has been entirely aimed at evolving legal regulations specifically to prevent you from doing that. And with good reason.

oh yeah because legality has always stopped your mad scientist experiments.


dooooooo iiiiiiiiiiiit (and save some for me)

I probably shouldn't mention this, but it's perfectly legal as long as it's in small quantities for personal use.

But be careful always to call it, please, research!

I'm afraid the ATF doesn't agree (http://www.atf.gov/alcohol/info/faq/genalcohol.htm#g1). Otherwise I'd have some twinkie mash fermenting by now. :)

I wonder whether the rules have changed since the last time I looked, or I just misremembered. You could still make twinkie wine, though.
