Here's a good story for you from the Anchorage Daily News.

Wasilla distillery marks '420' day with hemp vodka release

WASILLA -- During at least one 420 celebration in Alaska on Friday, you'll be invited to pour yourself a drink instead of lighting a joint.

"420" is the code for cannabis consumption, and April 20 -- or 4/20 -- is the holy day. But why not pour a drink of hemp seed vodka instead, says a Wasilla-based distillery.

Purgatory is the newest flavor from the Alaska Distillery, the company that made a mark two years ago with the introduction of its smoked salmon-flavored vodka.

"We have a mad scientist who kind of runs the joint here, and he seems to have brilliant ideas," said Bella Coley, the distillery's chief operating officer.
