AFAIK, it has never been legal in USA to distill any amount of alcohol for 
your own consumption -- or even fortify beer or wine or hard cider by 
freezing it and filtering out the ice crystals.  Home winemaking up to 100 
gallons per year per adult has been legal for many years, and President 
Carter signed a law making home beer brewing legal up to the same limits 
(not that anyone was ever arrested before that for making beer at home -- 
just tell the revenuers that it's "barley wine")
