was at party once where there was a fountain of purple jesus. this was after my moonshine episode so i wasn't drinking at the time. everyone was hitting the stuff pretty hard. i went to the kitchen to get a soda and when i came back into the main room everyone at the party, like thirty people, had collasped into a writhing pile on the floor. it was like a bomb went off. everclear actually marketed a bottled product of it.
A lady I work with gave me a small bottle her husband had come across. I took it home to some friends down south and between the 4 of us we got destroyed. We just passed it around until it was gone but WOW. I took the first gulp and didn't feel anything for the first 5 to 5 seconds. Then it's like a bomb went off in my guts. The next day was pure hell on the toilet.
before drinking it. I understand you can get an idea of the quality by looking at the size of the bubbles when you swirl it in the mason jar. Smaller the bubbles the better. KevFla
I used to work with chemicals. Used denatured ethanol in the lab. One day a gallon of pure ethanol appeared in the lab that someone slipped thru purchasing. Didn't last long in the lab...... Further mystery, we usually ordered reagents in boxes of 4 gallon bottles, never saw the other 3.... btw, I don't drink so I never 'tested' it.
local tradition here. "makin' likker' is passed down from generation to generation, kinda like coal minin' in WV, it's a profession. "Popcorn Sutton" is one of the local legends...arrested (again) this year...ATF found 850 gallons at his plant. He was on probation when they found it....found guilty (again)...sentence..."2 years probation" (again) "Summer breezes" ...nothin' more than "liquid ecstasy". I can see how it could take a man's life (I don't mean kill him, I mean devoting his life...) Beer's not bad either. what I could never understand is how the human body stands up to this...day in and day out...for 6 - 7 decades. HARD on the bod..
