A federal judge in Texas has ruled that an 1868 ban on at-home distilling is unconstitutional.

U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman, in his ruling on Wednesday, sided with the Hobby Distillers Association's lawyers that the 156-year-old ban exceeded Congress's taxing power and violated the U.S. Constitution's Commerce Clause. The Hobby Distillers Association is a group that advocates legalizing a person's production of spirits such as whiskey and bourbon for their personal consumption.

"Indeed, the Constitution is written to prevent societal amnesia of the defined limits it places on this government of and by the people," Pittman wrote. "That is where the judiciary must declare when its coequal branches overstep their Constitutional authority. Congress has done so here."

My Dad's Uncle Willard would go out and pick wild Elderberries and make home made wine. We would do Christmas over at his place. I got hold of some of that wine and one of my cousins said my eyes looked glassy. LOL

Is that where Monty Python got the line "Your mother was a hamster and your father smells of elderberries"?

I am not that familiar with Monty Python so I have no idea. ;)

OK Didn't Harrison Ford do a movie about that? I think so. ;)
