Everyone hates Chef

im not getting in voice

Boo

i should have been in bed an hour ago btu i had to shoot down natsoc larping

because im tired of seeing it paraded as some sort of good economic idea

I'm prepping for a rally tomorrow.

noice

you know booze is twice or even thrice as expencive here than anywhere else

yep

how illegal is it to home distill?

like 88 illegals?

1488 illegals?

i know youre allowed to homebrew beer and cider and whatnot

my friends dad likes to make gruppa

which is basically ethanol

yea you're allowed to home brew here, but not distil

well i think you're allowed to make like 4 gallons a year or something

tbh i wouldnt be surprised if thats the national monthly consumption of beer here

probably more, but i'm talking spirits

how much is 4 gallons in litres?

16ish

tbh id go through that much spirits a month if i had the money

yea

but when vodka is $60 a bottle

fuck that

lol

ive kept a bottle of russian standard going for nearly a year

im surprised homebrewing/distilling isn't a bigger part of your culture with that level of tax

well it is

you know of our moonshining culture, right?

coopers has a very popular brand of home brew kits for sale

that's specifically because of taxes

oh ok
