Jim Beam Fire

Post by Frankennietzsche »

Terrible news from Bourbon country. A huge fire raged earlier today at the warehouses of Jim Beam distillery, a few counties south of here. While not a huge fan of Beam, this is still a tragic loss. I'll try to find more out as news is released.

That royally sucks. And what do you do, hose the fire and ruin all the Beam or just hope that it goes out on its own (and maybe bottle some limited edition Smoked Jim Beam).

A sad day indeed. Is all lost?

I knew I should've bought that bottle of JB Rye when I saw it...

Terrible news, but at least no one has been hurt. At least it wasn't the Jack Daniel's distillery!

Thank God it was only 2 percent of the output. Here I was thinking the whole works went up in flames.

Why did God choose to smite Jim Beam with lightning and not Anheuser-Busch?
