jvd99 Posted July 12, 2024 Share Posted July 12, 2024 Not sure where to put this, but a federal judge overturned a century-old federal prohibition on home distilling spirits The Hobby Distillers Association, an organization with 1,300 members, filed the lawsuit against the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau and Department of Justice (DOJ) to challenge the ban and they won! This will be appealed by the Feds, no doubt...but for the time being, we can all distill up our own hooch! Here's the Judge's opinion https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.txnd.384014/gov.uscourts.txnd.384014.49.0.pdf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IamMatt Posted July 15, 2024 Share Posted July 15, 2024 The judge stayed the decision for 14 days to allow the government to appeal the decision so I think it is technically still illegal during the 14 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
