Mention the word 'moonshine' to most Americans and it will conjure up images of clandestine, illegal liquor production in rural backwoods. The term is believed to be a reference to the work many moonshiners did in the dark of night. Even now, law officers say, some still make and sell hard liquor illegally. Over the years, the cat-and-mouse contest between law officers and so-called bootleggers has become the stuff of folklore.

  • Of course it's legal, cause "we pay the tax on it." That's the only reason why moonshine is illegal.. If the government can't get their money off of nothing, than they will ban anything :P
