Massachusetts Legal Beer Making Limit?!
My teacher told me that if I find the MA beer making limit on how many liters or ounces of achohol can be made in a house(like beer making kits)he will give me extra credit!. I need to know the limit for beer, wine and rum!. If someone can show me a website that says it and has been recently updated then I'll give you automatic best answer!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
It's not regulated on a state level (quantity, that is)!. It's regulated on a federal level!. For both wine and beer, the limit is 100 gallons per adult of legal drinking age (max of 2 adults) per year!. In other words, in a household with 2 adults over 21, 200 gallons of wine and 200 gallons of beer can be made per year!.

For rum, or any distilled spirit, the answer is zero!. One may not produce distilled spirits at their home ("residence" is the term used in the guidelines)!.
