Fire Destroys Beam Ky. Bourbon Warehouse

:( :( :( :( :(

Flames engulfed a seven-story bourbon warehouse Monday, sending alcohol-fueled flames more than 100 feet in the air.

The Jim Beam warehouse collapsed about two hours after the fire was reported at 3 p.m. and continued burning. The company said the metal-and-wood structure held about 19,000 barrels of bourbon, or less than 2 percent of its bourbon inventory.

What a loss, could it be that terrorists have found our weak spot?

Could we all have a moment of silence..............:(

I just saw this on the news....1 million gallons of bourbon burned!!!!:eek:

I was getting very nervous at first, until the less than 2 percent of its bourbon inventory statement. :eek:

That sucks!

There went next summers supply.

:( :(

don't worry , be happy ! we 've got plenty more where that came from . l o l !

OSO comes through again!!! Way to go!!!:D :D :D

The Wild Turkey people had one Burn down too. Seems like that Whiskey making has a high risk too it. Flammable Material just sitting around in Wood Barrels no less.

I can't believe you guys saw this. If you saw the footage from one of the helicopters, you saw my plant. The burning warehouse was only 500 yards from me!!! I could feel the heat...

800,000 gallons of bourbon destroyed. It is still on fire. The fire was caused by lightning during a storm here yesterday.

I guess 800,000 gallons of burbon makes a lot of fuel. :eek:

We don't need no Beam, let the mother f@#$er burn....Now if it was Jack Daniels I would jump from a building.
