Ouch...

     First sentence of a Huffington Post story:

If you're in a state where cousins can legally marry each other, but home brewers are forbidden to practice their craft, you must be in Alabama.

    Not that Alabama home brewers haven't been trying to get the legislature to approve home brewing. There are local commercial brewers in lots of towns, but if Joe Six-Pack (perhaps the first time that nickname has been truly appropriate) wants to brew some as a hobby at home...he's out of luck.

Montgomery, 1880's

     And "craft beer" is even embraced by the city of Montgomery. The just ended Jubilee City Fest event is being replaced with a combination BeerFest and Concert at the riverfront this year. (Although the event is not new there's no schedule on the city's Parks Department website yet.)
