BEACON LOVE BITES
It was 2020 and the pandemic was just starting to bear down on our little city of Beacon.
As a distillery – we at Denning’s Point Distillery were deemed “essential” and allowed to continue manufacturing. We used our facility to make hand-sanitizer for the community but we were a bit perplexed what the lock-down would mean for our little business. Would we even have a business with all the regulations limiting our operation?
Still, we soldiered on, opening on the weekends for no-contact hand-sanitizer pick-ups and bottle sales which the community so generously supported. The whole team was deeply touched when one morning we arrived to start our “essential” work to find that a lovely member of the Beacon community had left us a gorgeous vase of flowers with a thank you note, no name signed.
THIS is Beacon!
