I used to drink hooch in prison. You could get the yeast in the kitchens but they keep it under close watch so its hard to get. One i was at we would make fresh bread so we would steal that and use it.
We'd put it in a bottle with juice and sugar and leave it warming on the pipes to create the 'kick'. After about 5 days you can really smell the alcohol and a litre kick could create about 5 litres of hooch. We'd leave it brewing on the pipes and release the gas every night so it didnt explode.
We made good hooch and i spent many nights getting ******. But since leaving prison i have developed acid reflux, which when i see the doctors they always ask about my alcohol intake, which isnt that high, or at least i wouldnt think its high enough to have caused it. Ive just been thinking back to how mich hooch i used to drink and im thinking that may have been the cause. I may have damaged my stomach. So definitely not worth it.
