This may be totally off-topic, but the only time I've ever tasted real moonshine was when a co-worker in New York came back after Christmas vacation and brought me a jar of the real stuff. His uncle had made it. Now the thing is, I don't know if it was 100% corn whiskey or how long it was aged or if it was part-sugarcane or any of that fancy drinkin' talk that flies pretty fast around these parts. It was MYSTERIOUS.
But it was GOOOOOD. It was so good I drank around three big gulps before the first one caught up with me, and it was the smoooothest liquor I've ever drank. I had to give the rest away cause it was dangerous.
So - anybody ever had any of the commercial stuff?
Even though they call this a Bourbon, notice that it's 100% corn. Looks pretty good, actually, even though Northerners make it:

Howdy y'all
To all those who have been emailing me over the last few years I am finally travelling to appear at Tiki Oasis this year for the first time with merchandise from the newly opened Tiki Beat Bar in Freemantle Western Australia - designed and carved by Tiki Beat - there will be a few limited edition pieces. Hope to see you all there come and say hi.

First time post, but some of you know me from the surf scene. This will be my 3rd TO, looking forward to it. Not sure if there's still room for another music act somewhere, totally forgot about these guys, the Cadillac Angels, would be a great fit with this years theme. Look them up on Facebook or youtube.
Just thought I'd put that out there, not even sure if they're free that weekend, but I mentioned the event to them and they seemed interested.
