According to the historic
Sun Inn's webpage, alcohol was a staple of Colonial-era America. It hopes to replicate that time with Christmas City Spirits. Unanimously, Hanover Township Supervisors voted last night to allow Christmas City Spirits to operate a distillery at 167 N Commerce Way. These beverages will supply a tavern whose guest list at one time boasted George Washington, Martha Washington, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Samuel Adams, Ethan Allen, Alexander Hamilton, Henry Laurens, Richard Lee and Marquis de Lafayette.
It will be a distillery only. There will be no tasting room or retail sales. As explained by Attorney Mike Santanasto, you'll find those at the Sun Inn.
He and fellow distiller Brett Biggs, both of whom are Bethlehem Catholic grads, still need approvals from the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board and the federal Tax and Trade Bureau. But once that happens, Christmas City Spirits will be in business.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
