Description: "Minnesota 13" is a historical overview of the years from 1920-1933, when moonshine production dominated the county while the 18th Amemdment was in effect. The skill of the local moonshiners -- combined with the perfect strain of corn -- produced some of the best whiskey in the United States. It was bootlegged and sold in speakeasies from New York to San Francisco and competed succesfully with the best alcohol rumrunners could provide.
