Great interview w. the owners of Scarlet Lane Brewing via CraftFund.
"CraftFund: It seems that craft brewers are leaders in the sustainability movement. Why do you think that is?
Scarlet Lane: Probably because craft brewers rely so heavily on the environment and farmers that provide the product. It doesn’t make sense to contribute to the wrecking of the environment when you need it to be healthy for you to be in business. Also, we have a product that can cause major impacts to the environment. If you think about the amount of water used, the gas, shipping, by product toxicity, energy, and beyond, our industry is unequally set-up to operate sustainably and receive immediate benefit from a cost perspective. We need good crops and water to make beer, we need to do all we can to protect that."
