terrible news about Jack Daniels

[shellbellc]

First heard and thought it was a joke, but the noon news confirmed that the spring that feeds the distillery is at about 1/3 of what it should be. If it dries up, officials confirmed that they will cease operations, they won't bring in water from another source...

For me, it would only really afftect my apple and jack spray, for my husband, I don't know what he'll do, his drink of choice anywhere, jack and water with a lemon, gentleman jack on the rocks, jack manhatten...

ALRIGHT, this global warming this has gone far enough. It's one thing that the ice caps might be melting, but when it starts affecting my alchohol intake I SAY ENOUGH!!!

But Wait! There's MORE!
According to Modern Drunkard Magazine (proud member), JD has lowered its proof twice and didn't tell anyone. A petition has over 12,000 signatures. Read this:

Spring dries up, price goes UP; proof goes down, profits go UP.
It's just good business.

I don't like whiskey.........

You might want to consider upgrading to George Dickel (tan label). I used to be a JD fan but about 20 years ago, I found George and all has been well since.... Good stuff.

 

[squeezy]

Highly over rated I think ... I'll stick to my rum!

 

[cajunsmoker]

Now thats real sippin whiskey there Bill!!!!!

 

[gypsyseagod]

bacardi never runs dry..... so why is the rum always gone ?? me wifey says the pirate(aka me)gets into it .

 

[skinnerc06]

Famous Grouse takes the cake, as long as someone else is buying it.

 

[shellbellc]

I think I've heard of George Dickel, but not the Grouse one...exactly what are they?

Sad movies always make me cry. Maybe we'll have to start a "Bring Jack Back" campaign.

Jack sucks!

Milwaukee's Best ROCKS!!!

 

[keywesmoke]

Milwaukee's Best? My God man.....drink BEER.

 

[bigal]

LOL!

I know, I know. Sam Adams when I can.

For washing away summer's heat it is Bud. For enjoying a bit it is a fine microbrew, but for real pleasure I truly enjoy a fine single malt scotch whiskey.

Now I have enjoyed bourbons, rums, vodkas, gins, whiskeys of all sorts and I still go to my favorites.

Scotch Rules!

Cheers!

I am sure I feel the same as many people do. This is concerning. JD is a cornerstone to any honest hearted alcohol consumer. I guess this would however free up some room on the shelves for more crown royal.

 

[up in smoke]

Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m gonna have to go with Jim Beam Black, folks!

 

[buffdadjj]

Cold Bud. And the wild turkey eye here , just for medicinal purposes only.

 

[crewdawg52]

Yea, to wash socks in!

A few of my buds like Marker's Mark (I think that's what it is....still dont like whiskey

).
