Re: shipping everclear across state linessaid by Mele20:Ahh...thank you! No wonder I have never heard of it...illegal here in Hawaii. That's sort of surprising since liquor, beer and wine are sold in grocery stores, drug stores, etc. until 11PM or so 7 days a week. I thought Ohio very strange when I lived there years ago what with liquor being sold only in state liquor locations and you had to choose what you wanted by looking a a display behind locked glass cabinets and write down the number of the specific bottle and then pay the cashier who then brought the bottle out. Very few locations and short hours. theres 2 versions of everclear 151 proof and 190 proof the 190 is 95% alchohol, about as close to moonshine as you can legally get, probably not legal in many states for that reason it's truly a terrible drink, many people will puke from 1 shot, it literally is just strait burning going down, while you can take it without a chaser, i wouldn't suggest it as even with a chaser it's very rough on a good note, 1-2 shots will have you feeling quite good one party my friend made wop(fruit punch+fruit+alcohol) except with the 190..........lots of puking at that party, lots of passing out..........even i was having trouble eating the fruit because it was so strong :P |

Everclear 190 is legally sold in some military stores within the continental United States. I guess we are out of luck up here. |

My dads wife uses Everclear when she makes homemade Khalua - she does a 50\50 mix with water then uses it in the recipe.
Her dentist would get her some when he went to Nevada and she lived in Ca. |
