Isn't making moonshine illegal? Only if you sell it. Of course you will be paying a tax on each batch. Uh huh.

Isn't making moonshine illegal? I'm using store bought ingredients in this video. Everclear is moonshine & can be bought in most liquor stores. In Texas you can make moonshine/whiskey as long as it's for personal consumption.

Distilling alcohol is illegal in any amount unless you have a permit.

I have made it with both and the end product turns out the about same. The reason I use Everclear or a similar product is because the alcohol content is always 95% or 190 proof, whereas home made corn whiskey is not always that strong.

We used to drink a similar recipe when ice fishing. We'd re-warm it on the heater so that it was hot. It was fantastic in many ways. Thanks for the recipe, sir.

Me and my girlfriend just went through this. She took a course in college on beer brewing and now the hallway is a full on Heisenberg level beer superlab. She was good on making hooch as long as it was beer. We inquired about making moonshine, and this was the response we got from a friend in some of our brewing circles. This was copied from an email: _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "Making whiskey is 100% illegal in any amount, anywhere in the US. You can brew your own beer or wine as long as you don't sell it, but any product that utilizes distilling for consumption is illegal. It is a federal crime to distill moonshine. Sec. 109.21 (a) of Texas TABC laws state that: The head of a family or an unmarried adult may produce for the use of his family or himself not more than 200 gallons of wyne, bier, malt liquor, or ale, per year. No permit or license is required. Therefore, bier is legal to brew. But once the bier or mash goes to a still it becomes illegal without a commercial liquor production license. Same goes for any method of increasing the alcohol content of any brewing product. Information on TABC liquor and brewing licenses can be found here. To distill ethanol you will need a Local Industrial Producers Permit: TTB 5110.74 Form Additional Info: Home Page TABC Licensing TABC Contact Info " _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ So there's your answer. I bolded an colored some stuff, but the rest is straight from fellow brewers about moonshine. Apparently they take it pretty serously. Kinda makes me proud to live in the USA, where nothing's free and everything's taxed.
