Not a whiskey drinker myself but those that are may be crying softly into their pillow tonight. I don't think anyone was hurt. (I pray not) What a shame.

uh oh

Not a Jim Beam fan at all and when I do drink it's usually Pendleton or something similar.

I heard it was only 45,000 barrels which is only a fraction of their stock.
Any one with common sense tends to drink brandy anyway.

Zim

Hey Zim, drinking brandy tends to cause a loss of common sense, which then leads to drinking bourbon. Might as well just start with the bourbon.

Hey now, I know a lot of Ladies that like Brandy.

Ha !!

Out here, the ladies like Dubra

Figured out the math. That's over 12,000,000 bottles of bourbon.

So that's the equivalent to 1.2 million less drunk tank visits lol. If it were Jack Daniels I'd be worried.

I like a little bourbon in the evening after supper,when all the fur is took care of and I'm pleasantly wore out sitting in front of the wood stove in my tent off in some wild place.

By golly, now there is a thought.

Zim

Zim, now you get it. If ya feel the incline to buy a belt that cost a hundy, your incline should click in lol. Hahahahaha

I only live a few miles from there. I heard the fire sirens go off near 11:30 last night. Had no idea what for. There was a major storm going on with lots of lightning. The current thought by fire & LE is a lightning strike caused the fire. What a waste of a good product. Alcohol abuse for sure.

Is bourbon flammable? I know high proof rum and Everclear grain alcohol will burn, wasn’t sure about 80 proof bourbon. Sure looks like it was a hot fire.

Wow! Lots of booze. I wonder how many lives were saved due to the fire?

Likely none.

I disagree. At least one alchohol caused death was avoided in those 12000000 bottles

Those bottles will be replaced in bars and liquor cabinets by other bottles of Jim Beam or other brands/varieties. A drop in the bucket of alcohol consumption across the nation.

Hope the Old Crow barrels are okay

As long as it wasn't the Coors brewery...……...
