[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 399571, member: 4362"] Not trying to argue - just wanting to keep any potential brewmeisters from getting in a bind - state law cannot supercede federal law. Liquor making is controlled by the US Dept. of Treasury - ATF in particular. It is a federal crime to distill alcohol without a permit. You will go to federal court for distilling it - not state. You can run a still, but you must pay a yearly federal permit fee, plus a state fee, plus you must have the still in its own building (not your house) and the building must meet certain standards. Failure to pay this fee is viewed as federal tax evasion. "Presence at an unpermitted unregistered still without a good explanation of why you were there is sufficient grounds for conviction". Jury? Also, it is legal to buy stills from stores and such. Just that, the seller is required by federal law to supply the ATF with the names of the buyers. So, if you buy one you'll probably get to meet a real GMan. :lol: [/QUOTE]
