This crap is interesting and I'm not sure why. I loved watching the yeast get to floating itself all around the bottle, then it foamed up out of the airlock, receded, and started flowing a steady stream of gas into the airlock, making the water in it bubble and such.
None of that really sounds interesting, I know, that's my point! Why am I so fascinated by that?
Watching juice ferment.

Pruno? I'm not sure. I do know it's apparently called federweisser in Germany and sturm in Austria, though, lol.
48 hour juiceahol. And yes, I think you're right, it's watching the little yeast dudes eat sugar, puff out CO2, and inevtiably die
I am their god of juice.

pruno is what they call alcohol they make in prison. they'll throw in juice, fruit, sugar, and bread to make the stuff.

Oh, lol, didn't know that one. I just figured it was called "toilet wine"
But nah, no bread, just grape and pomegranate juices and a yeast packet With EMULSIFIERS! For emulsifying I guess!

We call that sour mash. >.>
You should post a guide on how you went about it.

I think of Jack Daniels when I hear sour mash.
And there's not much of a guide... it's just a three piece wine airlock in a rubber stopper corked into a 64 oz bottle of white grape juice with 1 cup replaced with a cup of pomegranate juice. Yeast added of course.
I picked up the necessary items from the local party store, they carry home brewing supplies. Got the idea from a kit on thinkgeek, just had to gather the reagents, lol.

For sure. End result is better than I expected too.
Low proof, about 7 or 8 I'd estimate, but it tastes like even less, which is what makes all the difference
