Go to one of the new liquor super stores, there's one in Southcenter. That's where I buy my everclear for apple pie shine they also have the 1000ml not just the 750ml that Safeway sells.

I didn't think you could get the big stuff in Washington.   I've been loading up in Montana when I go there.  Good stuff.  Its also my substitute for moonshine when making pie.

Brother in law lives in Vancouver.  He came up to my son's soccer tournament yesterday and brought me my christmas present.  From the apple pie moonshine thread, it sounds like some guys have found it in state at various places

Washington had a law that they would only go so high in proof.  That may have all changed with all the recent events in regards to selling alcohol. :dunno:    If you do see it, make sure you check the proof as it might have nearly the same label

Good point bone. I have seen the same label with a lower proof. I started seeing the high proof stuff after the state was pushed out of the liquor sales.

Oregon, only like $30 for a half gallon of the high octane juice.
Some animals WERE harmed in the making of this Hunter. They were also dragged through the dirt, butchered and tasted delicious fried with butter and bacon.

The old state liquor store here in Eburg carries the Everclear and 151 Rum...  Where we get it for making Apple Pie ...
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

When did 190 proof become legal in WA?  Back when I was in college in OR we would get it, but it was not available here in WA.  When did the law change? :dunno:

151 is the highest proof you will find in Washington. I had a buddy call me from Montana this weekend 190 is 22 bucks a fifth.

Darn, I was just up in the Puyallup area for Thanksgiving. I could have made a delivery of 190 from Oregon into the area.

Not that I would ever do that (if it's illegal). :)

The liquor store here in town has 190 everclear. The first time I saw it I asked the guy behind the counter, he said ever since it's been privately owned they can carry it.

Even with the 150 proof stuff drinking an entire quart to my self I get a pretty dang good buzz going, can't imagine drinking two quarts and not feeling a thing unless something's wrong or you have an extremely high tolerance.
