Hello from Nebraska

Post by Spooky »

Hello,

Not much to me. I live in Nebraska, originally from SD. I'm apparently not broke enough from my other Hobbies (Knives, Guns, Watches, Ham Radio, Exotic Plants) so I've developed an interest in distilling my own liquor.

Watched a few shows on the subject, figured I could give it a shot. My neighbor is a trusted friend and interested in going for it as well. He's also quite handy in ways that I am not. Should work out pretty well.

I'm 37. Enlisted at 17, Honorable Discharge at 25, Married at 26. Plenty of taste experience with various spirits. Not particularly fond of beer in general, though I have favorites. (Guinness, Empyrean Nitro Porters).

Used to be all in on Scotch, until I discovered Bourbon. Most common bottles in the house are Bulleit Rye, or Knob Creek. Though I've tried and enjoyed others. Been trying to lose weight and get into better shape - gotta keep up with my 6 year old. Mostly successful. Recently ran a mile with her at our city's "Turkey Trot". Did well enough I think.

In the end, for me a gallon of whiskey is probably a 6 month supply or better. Couple months for the neighbor.

I hope the day and holiday season is going well for you.

-Michael
