  • Stewardship Report One of the Brewers Association’S Goals Is to Be a Transparent Organization
    2011 Stewardship Report One of the Brewers Association’s goals is to be a transparent organization. This stewardship report serves as a summary of Brewers Association board, committee, staff and member activities in the 2011 calendar year. The Brewers Association is a 501(c)(6) not-for-profit trade association. Purpose To promote and protect small and independent American brewers, their craft beers and the community of brewing enthusiasts. Mission By 2013, America’s craft brewers will have more than five percent market share, will be recognized as making the best beer in the world, will be able to obtain the ingredients and materials needed and will be politically influential enough to secure fair legislative and regulatory treatment for craft brewers. As American craft brewers, our commitment to quality, vitality and diversity will continue to invigorate our country’s impressive brewing culture. Consumers will understand and support craft beer from true craft brewers. Our efforts will not only aid existing craft brewers, but also those who would come after, ensuring the continuing contribution of new ideas and individuals committed to a living and active beer culture. Core Values & Beliefs At the Brewers Association we believe in: • Promoting and celebrating the small, independent and traditional culture of American craft brewers. • Vigorously defending our industry. • Supporting and encouraging the responsible enjoyment of beer. • Providing stewardship for 10,000 years of brewing history. • Educating brewers and consumers about the diversity, flavor and quality of beer. • Improving the economic health of American craft brewers. • Working to build a community of brewers and brewing enthusiasts to provide them with a unified voice.

From purchasing ingre- dients to packaging and storing the finished product, brewers and brew- ery owners are faced with numerous decisions that significantly affect the environment. The vast majority of breweries reduce their environmental impact by doing things like recycling their spent grains to local farmers for animal feed rather than dumping them in a land fill, or by utilizing so- lar panels to help generate electricity. Brewery owners and operators are continuously scrutinizing their opera- tions to see what additional steps can be taken to lessen their environmen- tal impact. So, why focus on reducing the brewery’s environmental impact? “I spend most of my free time snowboarding, cycling, and hiking; the devastation that man is reeking upon the planet has to stop,” stresses Christian Ettinger, owner and brewmaster of Hopworks Urban Brewery in Portland.

  • Tradition, Apprenticeship, and Formal Brewing Education
    PAGE 19 • Research Note • Hopping to It: Tradition, Apprenticeship, and Formal Brewing Education ERIKA GOERGEN American Institute for Conservation Abstract: This research note examines the two most common ways in which brewing professionals learn their trade. The author argues that both apprenticeship and formal brewing schools are important methods to learn how to brew beer and then looks at the evolution of how both have changed over time. The essay chronicles the concerns present day brewers have about the educational system and the importance of having an open mind when it comes to training. In many industries, there are often two tracks to learning: apprenticeship with hands-on learning and formalized education with a defined curriculum. Take for example, professional painters, art conservators, and beer brewers; all three of these professions have professional schools while keeping the apprenticeship model alive and well. Parallel to this, many people in professions operate with an art vs. science mindset. That is, do you need the empirical, scientific training to be successful or is the intuitive nature of apprentice training enough? American cultural anthropologist Richard Kurin would argue for arts' sake with this sentence: "Like other forms of brokerage, cultural dealings rely on an extensive base of knowledge, formal and experiential, but they are, in the end, and art" (1997). Kurin's statement about cultural dealings is reflective of the position of this writer that experiential and formal, or in this case, apprenticeships and professional training, are both valid methods of learning the craft of brewing beer. That is to say, apprenticeship and formal training can live together.

  • Ingrain's Vision Is to Transform Brewers' Spent Grain, a Waste Product Of
    Eco-Entrepreneurship Project Final Report Bren School of Environmental Science & Management University of California Santa Barbara Spring 2016 1 InGrain’s vision is to transform brewers’ spent grain, a waste product of beer production, into sustainable packaging and brand differentiating materials for the craft beer industry. U.S. Craft breweries are booming: in 2014 alone, craft production rose 18%, and hundreds of new facilities are established each year. While a boon for the industry, this growth also means breweries are having a larger impact on the environment: more production leads to an increase in demand for paperboard packaging made from virgin wood pulp. We propose to close the industry loop on breweries’ waste generation by using one waste product– spent grain– as an input for the other — paperboard packaging. Breweries are major consumers of disposable paperboard goods– packaging, paper goods, and promotionals. Our market research suggests that this packaging does far more than safely move product from point A to point B: breweries rely on their six-pack holders and coasters to attract customers and develop their brand identity. This identity is crucial in an increasingly crowded craft beer market whose consumers tend to value a compelling story. Therefore, any packaging that distinguishes a brewery as more genuine, more committed is an advantage in the craft market. InGrain packaging and coasters have the ability to make manifest a brewery’s commitment to closed-loop production practices, sustainability, and community. 2 The InGrain Team TERRA ALPAUGH CAMERON DUNNING TALIA IBARGÜEN Cornell University - BA History UCSB - BA Business Economics Northeastern University - BS Pepperdine School of Law - JD Environmental Science and Graduate Specialization: Wildlife Biology Energy and Climate Graduate Specialization: Coastal Marine Resource Graduate Specialization: Management Corporate Environmental Management After a decade away exploring He is originally from the San Talia is originally from Rainbow New York, Wyoming, and Beijing, Francisco Bay Area.
