Ole Smokey Moonshine can't make their nasty chit fast enough!
It's either un-drinkable 100proof clear or flavored 40 proof.
$27 quart.
Folk buying 4,5,6 qt at a time all day.

When I was going to TAMU at College Station in the early 1980’s, there was some damn fine moonshine still being made in SE TX. We’d pay some students from that area and Far East TX to bring us the good stuff.

When I was younger I handled cocks in the pit, got a whiskey still out back, been known to grow a little dope and run my hounds on bear and I ain’t making excuses for none of it.

I’ve drank some that was very good and some that was horrible. The best was made with banana. The second best was made out back of a little joint in Puerto Rico out of sugar cane.
The worst? I don’t know what is was made of and I don’t think I really want to know.

The best I had reeked of sweet corn when you opened the jar.
Wish I could get more!

You don't like white dog? Haven't heard that in a long time. I love good white, but even around here it's way harder to find that it was even 15 years ago. Lots of homemade sweet fruity junk that's more like MD 20/20 than moonshine, but not much corn squeezins.

I raised bantam fighting chickens. Mean bastards. I had red dunns, but it's many years since I've been involved. There was a cockfight busted near here a few months ago, not far from our gun club. Participants from a few states, I think. Guy hosting was quoted in the paper as saying, "We were just having some fun." Hard to believe cockfighting is now outlawed in every state. Can that even be constitutional?

Growing up near what many consider the moonshine capital I was privileged to get to know some interesting characters that made and distributed the stuff. I have heard some crazy stories from those boys. Many were and still are good at their craft.

Any good diagrams of how to set up a small still along with family recipes? How exactly does a thump keg work and does it improve the quality?

The best I've had was from Wilkes Co. NC. It tasted like Cuervo gold and was smooth.
