I had the ‘authentic’ stuff in Alabama, while visiting Beau’s family. WOW! That stuff could dissolve rust! One sip was enough for me, though local ‘craftsman’ Donny insisted I take the whole quart Mason jar!
He was also making wine, but it somehow EXPLODED, so I didn’t get to try that, ;) (Small favor!)
That happened to a friend of our that tried to make his own beer.
He bottled it too soon and the fermentation was not yet completed, so they exploded.................
