On this day 100 years ago, a Denver Colorado court ruled in favor of a homebrewer who had been brought up on charges of violating the state's prohibition laws. The court ruled that the brewer, one Jacob Bahl, did not violate the prohibition of "the manufacturing for sale or gift...of alcohol" law since it did not sell nor gift the beer.

I was just trying to think of a name. That is outstanding.
