Full Sail Named Best Green Small Scale Brewery 2010 by Treehugger.com
Like our bottle caps say, we are stoked to brew. We are also stoked to be named the Best Green Small Scale Brewery 2010 by Treehugger.com.
From the clear water flowing from Mt. Hood to the community that surrounds us, we are committed to sustaining our natural resources and are thrilled to be recognized for our efforts.
“Located in an old cannery in Hood River, Oregon, Full Sail Brewing steps in front of an increasingly large pack of sustainability-minded breweries by incorporating eco-minded practices into every aspect of the beer making process. From compressing the work week to reduce machine operating time to dramatically cutting water consumption, Full Sail has demonstrated that responsible drinking means a lot more than simply recycling your bottles. Which isn’t to say that the concept of recycling is lost on the employee-owned company: All materials used in the production process—from spent grain to paperboard and plastic wrap—is reused or recycled.” – -Treehugger.com
