Greetings from Wisconsin

Post by stempleton »

Hello Everyone,

Thanks for letting me join. My Dad was born and raised in Tennessee. He later moved to Wisconsin to be near his brother, met my Mom and raised a family. He had a friend that visited Tennessee often, bringing back a jar or two for my Dad every trip. The smile on his face when he opened the jar! I’m a scotch/bourbon/Irish whiskey fan and I always said that when I retired I was going to try my hand at distilling. I’m in the process of building my first still, an electric beer keg pot still, and I’m interested in all-grain recipes, so let the reading begin!

Great story. Welcome!
I just read an article about the dangers of drinking that scared the crap out of me.

That’s it. No more reading!
