WASHINGTON >> The U.S. Supreme Court agreed today to decide the legality of a federal ban on the home distilling of alcoholic spirits that was enacted in 1868 after the U.S. Civil War to crack down on liquor tax evasion.
Summary
The Supreme Court will consider whether a 155-year-old federal law prohibiting home distilling of liquor is still valid. This review could have significant implications for homebrewers and the alcohol industry in general.
