Holiday time means holiday parties and holiday parties mean cocktails. In this video from Building Wisconsin TV, we’re making whiskey at Dancing Goat Distillery with members from Steamfitters Local 601. Host Stuart Keith starts at the Local 601 Training Center in Milwaukee with Joel Zielke. Then it’s on to Dancing Goat in Cambridge WI to meet with General Mgr. Sean Dotson and Head Distiller & Blender Nick Maas. We’ll see how welding done by Local 601 contractor DeGarmo Plumbing & Piping effects the quality of their whiskey and why having highly trained welders is part of their formula for success. Finally, welding instructor Erik Ogren talks about training and the Accelerated Welding Program for experienced welders to join Local 601.
