Is distilling illegal?

There is much opinion as to the legality of distilling one’s own liquor. I would like to know if it is indeed legal to distill liquor for one’s own consumption. (Note to mods: I’m not looking for instruction in how to distill, only whether it is legal for me to do so.)
Thanks to all for any documented input!

That depends on what you want to do with the liquor. Drink yourself, give it to friends family or sell it over state lines. The latter would be bad.

Check this distilling site out. It’s pretty comprehensive.

Or check this site out. For a list of links…

Here are links to the BATF’s take on the legality of home distillation. They don’t like it when people distill alcohol for consumption.

Dnm revenuers…

Thanks for the replies.
