a Meade County sheriff’s deputy said the distillery contained 500 gallons of grain alcohol. More than 40 firefighters fought the blaze, and their efforts were complicated by the lack of fire hydrants or a ready water supply at the site. Water had to be trucked in and held in holding tanks.

There are no hydrants or plumbed water supply on the grounds of the Full Throttle Saloon, which opens in June and closes just after the Sturgis Rally.

Sad day for the biker community. Wonder if a new Full Throttle Saloon will rise from the ashes like a Phoenix.
