Everyone gets a turn in the barrel, Why not do it with Jack..........:laugh:

 

[peteg59]

Just under $8500 for that barrel, HOLY COWABUNGA.
I used to be a J/D guy, when I was 21ish.:xzqxz:

Now to figure out how to strap it down on the trike.

 

[FuzzyWuzHe]

I ran an environmental lab in Northbrook, Il. for about five years, While I was there I got a call from the Jack Daniels distillery. Apparently the EPA decided they needed to run a gamma spectroscopy on every batch they distilled.

I told them yes we did that and that I needed a gallon sample that I could return after analyzing. He said just keep it, and drink it or throw it down the drain. I'd already quit booze by then, so I figured we'd destroy it after. First sample arrived and it was 6 gallons in a box. It was really cloudy. I called the guy and he said they only had gallon jugs that fit in a 6 gallon box and they sent the stuff before it was "filtered" and that it was safe to drink, and that he preferred it pre filtered.

Make a long story short, I got 6 gallons of Jack every week or two, for about three years. Needless to say, the lab techs were mighty happy campers and I'm proud to say even though JD was my drink of choice as a youngin, I never touched a drop ...

They pretty much came out of the woodwork ... especially after the first lab party ...

 

[dirtdobber]

They do make cool looking trailers.

The barrels? If so yep saw a few of them in Sturges in 07 ... little heavy, but nice looking

If you waited to buy one to make a trailer me and probably a few others on here would volunteer to empty it for you! :Coffee:

 

[FuzzyWuzHe]

Back in my crazy youth ... during the "van craze" I made a set of "captains" chairs out of a wine barrel. Only problem ... the van always smelled like wine all the time ... not a good thing.

 

[Ed Hobgood]

Did someone say something about a party?orag:

 

[Sully]

So why do they think it's worth $8500 :Shrug: is it Full of JD or what

 

[FuzzyWuzHe]

That would be my guess ... :blush:

 

[Trent]

Yes!... It is full...!! Of single barrel select which is an upgrade from the regular JD. Good stuff....

 

[Sully]

Ok, that good. So whats your guess on what size the Barrel is ? how many gallons :Shrug:

 

[rhino 2]

Ok, that good. So whats your guess on what size the Barrel is ? how many gallons :Shrug:

Whisky... 53..... Oil 42.......

 

[Sully]

Ok then, based on 53 gal. that would be $4,876 for the Bourbon, so the Barrel is $19.99 ThumbUp

 

[Trent]

Priced at $8,500... ?

 

[Sully]

Oops, type O :laugh:

Too much Whiskey
