Can confirm. Have hung out with hillbillies in WV. Lots in common, poverty is pretty universal.

"What did you do for fun growing up in Vermont?"

"Smoked weed and went sledding. Partied in the woods with cheap booze and bonfires. How about here in West Virginia?"

"Smoked weed and went mudding. Partied in the woods with cheap booze and bonfires."

"Nice. Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

"Got some of that VT bud?"

"If you've got more of that moonshine!"

"Nice. Cheers!"

Exactly, someone said the difference is we don’t moonshine. Weed is to VT what moonshine is to WV.

Who doesn’t moonshine? You need to hang out I. Better crowds if your not encountering home distilled spirits. We don’t do the make you go blind shit that they do down south, but the reason we have a lot of micro-distilleries that are making high quality products is because we have a VERY strong home distill culture, some with money go legit, but most are just making good whiskey, vodka, gin, etc for friends and family which is moonshining.

Most of the people I came up with didn’t moonshine. We all grew pot every summer though. A few brewed beer but making alcohol takes more resources and space than growing weed in my experience.

I live in Vermont but grew up in North Carolina. We drank moonshine and smoked weed while partying in the woods with bonfires. I think you are describing a lot of rural America here!
