Makes one wonder why they didn’t have a central fire extinguishing system in the facility.

Look for the price of Bourbon to go up

Beam will be releasing a new barrel aged bourbon ‘with a hint of smokiness’ :)

Always thought it was “Jim Bean” not “Beam” :scratch2: for some reason.

Hahahahaha

Yikes!!! “The destruction could end up costing the whiskey maker $90 million to nearly $300 million of lost Bourbon, Bloomberg reports.”

Good news from this article:

"Jim Beam operates 126 warehouses in Kentucky that hold approximately 3.3 million barrels and the losses represent about 1.4 percent of the company’s product."

Tragic events, think of those innocent barrels of bourbon all in a better place now. :tears:

The angels’ share.....
