I hear you TT. The "moonshine" sold in these Alabama state owned and operated stores is watered down "white whiskey" that hasn't been put into a charred barrel. While most "real" moonshine" is high-octane juice this stuff is only 80 proof (40% by volume). There could have been some 90 proof I didn't look. I was in there buying my mother a half a gallon of Canadian blended whiskey for a Christmas present.
We still buy shine out the back of pickups and car trunks here in GA.
