Billowing clouds, sweet nectared flowers, butterflies, and glowing saints - Emily Dickinson's manner of intoxication seem more like a dream than drunkenness. She also employs figurative language and imagery to further her point of the magicalness of the "endless summer days."The title in this instance "a liquor never brewed" refers to the purity the speaker sees in nature. It does not require the typical brewing associated with real liquor because the nature the speaker refers to cannot be tainted.
