Sierra Nevada Sustainability: Brewers Recycle Better Together

“Friends of ours including Hi-Wire Brewing, Asheville Brewing Company, Catawba Brewing Co., and Riverbend Malt House unloaded trucks and vans filled with materials.”

“A big part of our story is local sourcing,” says Brent Manning, co-founder of Riverbend Malt House. “Beyond that, from a production standpoint…we’ve always had partnerships with local farmers to keep [spent] material out of landfill. But this recycling piece that captures our packaging waste was really kind of the last big-ticket thing that we were trying to find a better solution for.”
