Attorney General Palmer Rules On Home Cider Law
An opinion released to the secretary of the treasury argues that home made cider remains lawful before fermentation, under Section 29 of the prohibition act, while the revenue bureau contends it must be non intoxicating in fact. Palmer says Congress meant to bar sale but not home manufacture, noting cider’s unique progression to alcohol via fermentation. The opinion, binding on the treasury, may prompt revisions to enforcement regulations.
