The gin producer just moved into a 10,000-square-foot production facility at 2245 S. West Temple, where the showpiece is a shiny, new 450-gallon still.
The new equipment will allow the distillery to start producing a variety of spirits including whiskey, rum and maybe brandy, said Matt Aller, a co-owner with Erik Ostling and Chris Barlow, who also is the head distiller.
In making the move, the trio brought along the original 80-gallon still it has used since 2013, when it opened in a small, nondescript warehouse in a Salt Lake City industrial park. The original now sits next to its larger sibling and will continue to produce Beehive’s popular Jack Rabbit Gin and Barrel Aged Gin, Barlow said.
