Is it illegal to make moonshine in a US state?

Yes, because it's a violation of federal law. Even if state law permits it, it's still a federal crime.Note that licensed distillers can produce a product identical in every way to the illegal home-distilled product except that it was produced by a licensed distillery (and that taxes were properly paid on it), and even call it "Moonshine" if they like, and that's perfectly legal. But distillation of alcohol by anyone but a licensed distiller is illegal, and licenses are essentially never given for home/hobby distillation.


Is it legal to make moonshine in Washington?

No, it is illegal to produce distilled spirits without a license in the state of Washington. US Federal law makes it illegal to produce or sell distilled liquor without a license in all 50 states, so it doesn't matter what state you're in. A properly licensed distillery can make liquor according to traditional "moonshine" recipes, sell it in earthenware jugs or mason jars, and even call it "Moonshine" if they want ... as long as all the taxes are paid on it, the government is perfectly happy with this. If you mean that kind of moonshine, sure, it's legal; there are a few distilleries that do more or less exactly this.
