Alabama nears OK for homemade beer, wine

The Alabama Senate on Tuesday approved legislation legalizing the making of beer and wine at home for personal use. The bill now goes to the House for a vote.

The 13-6 Senate vote passed the bill sponsored by Sen. Larry Dixon, R-Montgomery.

The bill also would permit homemade wine and beer to be transported to organized tasting and judging events, although there would be a 20-gallon limit.
