Making wine with dirty socks

In 1994, Jim Hogshire wrote a book called "You Are Going To Prison", filled with useful and not-so-useful tips for people planning (or at least expecting) to be incarcerated. One of these tips involved the brewing of alcohol for the desperate. Since this is the same man who has been described as permanently stoned, I'd be extremely wary of putting anything from one of his recipes into my body, but the loons over at The Sneeze (who ingest dubious things on a regular basis, it seems) actually tried some emergency brewing, and even more amazingly, got some people to drink it and describe the results.

To give you an idea of how the process went:

Quoting The Sneeze:
It was finally time to begin the brewing process. I reflected on the artisans around the world who've dedicated their lives to the craft of winemaking, as I lovingly shoved moldy bread in my socks.
