A community event involving free liquor tasting and free craft beer tasting is scheduled for Saturday evening.
The Cen Tex Vet Spirits Fest is expected to take place from 5-8 p.m. Saturday at the Phantom Warrior Brewing Company, 400 Cheyene Drive in Killeen. It will be hosted Phantom Wholesale Liquors.
Saturday’s event includes free liquor tasting, free craft beer tasting, free games, music, door prizes, snacks and other food and beverage vendors. The event is open to everyone, but the alcohol tasting is limited to those aged 21 and up.
The event will also showcase new liquor created by veteran-owned stills.
Phantom Wholesale Liquors was founded in 2021 by retired Staff Sgt. Tim Ferch and retired Sgt. 1st Class John Valentine III.
It became the first distributor with a permit in Killeen.
The veteran-owned wholesaler carries and distributes veteran-owned liquors as a way of giving back to those who served the country.

Instead of getting people liquored up, why not spend the money on helping people? Donate to a food bank or salvation army. Hope nobody gets a dwi after this stupid, meaningless "community event".
