I agree, moonshine should be spirits if its distilled. However, I saw a …thing from Africa that was effectively a 3 foot long woven basket/funnel thing, you stuffed bananas in it and left it in the sun. the bananas would rot and ferment and what dripped out of the bottom/tip would be somewhat alcoholic from natural yeasts etc.
I wouldnt call that spirits, wine or beer… dats some “other”
I see you need more explicit proof. You’d be surprised what can be used to make alcohol and what is used in some drinks.
In rural Mopani district, Limpopo, a homemade alcoholic drink called lela mhana wena (say goodbye to your mother) is being sold. It consists of sorghum malt, water, sugar, ice cream, some battery acid and brake fluid.
How is moonshine not spirits?

I think I will need to try this for scientific purposes so that I may contribute to this discussion.

Doesn’t define as spirit for me.
I highly recommend you visit rural Africa. Eye-opening in many ways.
But don’t drink this dirt-cheap poison!
