40,000 Whiskey Barrels Ablaze As Fire Rages Through Jim Beam's Kentucky Warehouses

Also a potential environmental disaster looming..

Allowing the fire to burn will prevent any runoff from "polluting" nearby sources of drinking water...

How do I volunteer to help with the cleanup

I guess I'll be paying more for the Devil's Cut. Hope that isn't what's on fire because they age it a lot longer. Very smooth whiskey in my opinion.

I'm drowning in a whiskey river
Bathin' my memory's mind in the wetness of its soul
Feeling the amber current flowing from my mind
To a warm and empty heart you left so cold

Fire destroys Jim Beam warehouse, bourbon flows into river

Dang... terrible. But imagine once the coals form, what they would do to a brisket.

So how does this work with the aging process? 45,000 seems like a sj*t-ton of bourbon. Will there be a shortage down the road once these barrels had aged enough to bottle?

JB says this is less than 1% of their aging inventory, so no real effect.

I feel a little guilty for laughing. And, I'd like in on that charcoal if you can figure out a means.

Proof that prayer is effective.
