>>> Id love to raid one of these ethanol plants with a truckload full of freshly toasted oak whiskey barrels, fill em up and stash them someplace for a few years
I’d advise against it. The ethanol is mixed with a poison to render it undrinkable and hence no threat to the alcoholic beverages tax structure.
Not that I'm doubting you, but do you have a reference for this little tidbit of info???
An obvious Commie plot! There has to be a way to get at the good stuff before they taint it...
