My rigs name is the Boston beer company(what's stamped in my keg) and that's funny I saw a bumper sticker something close to that but it said something like granny's old washer is a working still

My missus came up with the name from an old Mad magazine line: "the Maytag's a working still."

But it also means I can tell people "I have to run a couple a loads in the Maytag" in mixed company...

Welcome to HD. When I first seen your handle I was like that's a strange one. It's clear to me now it a good one. Funny how that shit works. Have fun and stay safe.

Well, considering we all load our stills with fermented wash, it's a perfect name.

Welcome to HD!
