Beer was legalized again 75 years ago today following prohibition.

I'll drink to that! My great great uncle was a captain of a ship that was infamous for bootlegging but was never caught...the authorities thought they did once but when they boarded the ship there was no sign of any liqor...they anticipated the cops coming so they put it all in barrels and had them flung over the side so when the cops left they simply went out into a dory and got it back!

Amen brothers. The house my mother grew up as a kid in the 1940's was originally used by bootleggers in the 1920s. In the front entry room there were holes cut in the floorboards for trap doors where pipes could run up into the room for distilling. When her family moved into the house back then the remains of that stuff was still under the house and they covered the holes in the floor with carpet.

The pics are hilarious - but I can't have my lady getting huge and me neither - the only 6 pack I got is on me...BTW, a 6 is all nutrition, no matter what those fools say.

Well Elvzz, why have a six pack when you could have the whole barrel I always say!

My maternal grandmother(Mom's mom)was born in 1899 into a family that operated what would be called, by today's standards, a hotel; a room in which to sleep and a place where food and liquor were for sale. She used to tell me stories about knocking the bung out of the barrels - not of beer but whiskey (that's how you slake a thirst!).

I asked her about Prohibition, which she richly recalled with stories but summed it up by saying: "Yes. Yes - we heard about it, some people were doing without."

" some people were doing without" I LOVE IT! She must have been quite a fun person to have around.
