C O N T A C T

 

At an African party,
we drank local
moonshine made of
grains. It was almost
like drinking
alcoholic porridge.
It carried quite a
"kick."

Apparently, the brewer
mixed the grain and the
water together, and
then he would spit
into the soup to supply
the yeast needed for
fermentation. The pot
was then burried for
a long time until the
brew was ready.
