The film presentation about the Beam Family and the early history of bourbon production is a great way to learn about a fascinating Kentucky tradition. A self-guided tour through the distilling process, an 1800's cooperage display, and a walk around the grounds gives one the feeling of going back in time over 200 years. The Homestead, adjacent to the Outpost, offers a glimpse of the Beam family history. Free tours Mon-Sat, 9am-4:30pm, & Sun, 1-4pm. FROM: http://www.travelbullitt.org/attractions.shtml#jbaoh
