The law is pretty wacky. I try to keep a low profile. I mostly brew for
three reasons; I like the hobby, I love the types of wines that I make that
usually can not be bought anywhere at any price, and it is cheaper to make
it yourself. I am on a limited income and laying out ten or twenty bucks a
week adds up. I can make a lovely bottle of wine for less than a buck.
