Homebrew for two turns ugly

Take homebrew, two men from Alaska, a fire extinguisher, and a chain saw. Add them together and you get a Beer Nuts! story!

Two men drinking home brew in Noorvik, Alaska (where the f&*$ is that?!?!) got in an altercation. Since it was in Alaska, naturally a chainsaw and fire extinguisher were involved. The police responded to the report of assault at 7:40 in the morning. That’s about sunset and happy hour in Alaska, right?

Aurora Borealis or space madness?

The two men got into a fight after drinking, and one broke the other’s foot. Not satisfied with just the broken foot, the man with the advantage also hit the injured man with a chainsaw and a fire extinguisher. The injured man crawled to a neighboring home for help.

The attacker, Ronald Barr, 48, was charged with two counts of first-degree assault and one count each of second, third and fourth-degree assault. We didn’t know there were that many “assaults”. Barr was also charged with manufacturing an alcoholic beverage. Didn’t Jimmy Carter make this legal in the 70s? Maybe the news hasn’t reached Alaska yet.

Who is behind fermentarium?
