Sustainability Forum to help the Drinks
Industry Transition to Greener
Production.

The Institute of Brewing & Distilling is organising several sustainability seminars to provide advice, expertise and case studies to help the industry to move to a more sustainable production and profitable industry future.
One of these key events is the Masterclass Local that the International Section is holding under the title "Sustainable Innovation in Brewing & Distilling" which will be held at the Spirit of Hven Distillery, located on Hven Island, in Sweden on the 20th and 21st June 2022.
