About a year ago........

Post by Dutch Harbor PH »

My partners and I had this crazy idea that we could put together a distillery and put out some good tasting interesting liquor.......
For all of those who have endured my posts....I can say that the wait is nearly over!!!! This weekend we bottled, corked, labeled, wax sealed and boxed 19 cases of our "Dog Watch Vodka".....

We were going to take it down to the Oregon Liquor Control Council warehouse tody until we realized that there wouldn't be anybody there to recieve it (MLK DAY...!!!) So tomorrow it goes to the warehouse and will be availible for liquor stores, resturants and bars in the State of Oregon to buy! At this point we can serve "Tastings" of our "DW Vodka" out of our tasting room in St Helens, but it will be a week or so before we can sell bottles out of the tasting room......

It's been a heck of a year and I would like to thank all the BNer's out there for there support and encouragement!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D

If you are interested on watching some short video clips, check us out on Facebook at Ye Ol Grog Distillery...... You can even "friend" us....we don't turn anybody down!!!!! :D :D :D :D 8) 8)

Thanks again everybody!!!!!

So who's going to be Smokey and who's going to be the Bandit?
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
