In this video from Building Wisconsin TV, we’ll see how steamfitters are an important part of the whiskey making process. Host Stuart Keith starts at the Steamfitters Local 601 Training Center in Milwaukee with Joel Zielke. Then we’ll visit Dancing Goat Distillery in Cambridge WI for a tour with General Mgr. Sean Dotson and Head Distiller & Blender Nick Maas. See how welding done by Local 601 contractor DeGarmo Plumbing & Piping effects the quality of the whiskey and why having highly trained welders is part of Dancing Goat’s formula for success. Finally, welding instructor Erik Ogren talks about the Accelerated Welding Program for experienced welders to join Local 601.
