One wintery Vermont Christmas Eve, Village Garage founders Glen Sauer and Matt Cushman shared their dream of opening a craft distillery in their hometown of Bennington, Vermont.

Glen knew of the perfect spot- the historic "Village Garage" near the four corners of downtown Bennington. Originally a tractor dealership that had served the local farm community, in recent decades it had been used to house the town's old highway equipment.

It might have become yet another empty building in the heart of an American town, but Glen and Matt had another idea. Instead, like so many other great American ventures, the Village Garage Distillery was born - out of a garage. Years of hard effort later, we're proud to present our handiwork to the community.
