U Look Hungry
Kings County Distillery
This week U Look Hungry gets drunk on moonshine, or, rather, drunk on talking about moonshine. Host Helen Hollyman (alliteration anyone?) is joined by Colin Spoelman of Brooklyn's own Kings County Distillery who talks about the colorful history of illegally making spirits here in New York and the renaissance that craft distilling is now enjoying. Learn what exactly separates moonshine from other grain spirits, the importance of distilling equipment and barreling, and how some so-called "small batch" distilleries aren't what they seem. The episode is sponsored by Hearst Ranch.
