In the years before prohibition, which state had the most registered distilleries? I will give you a hint, It was not Kentucky.

Re: Any Guesses?
I was going to say Pennsylvania, but recalling that probably many distilleries were making spirits and non-straight whisky and were established in the more industrialised areas, I'll go out on a limb and say, Ohio.

Re: Any Guesses?
My guess is Illinois, based on the (now long gone) bunch of distilleries
in Peoria.
