The world is facing major challenges. This affects every single one of us, us as a society, and us as a company. We are aware that online retail entails an increased carbon footprint. With every step and every bit of growth that is possible thanks to you as part of our amazing craft beer community, we also want to give something back. We have taken several measures to save as much CO2 as possible, offset our emissions , and even neutralize additional CO2 .
Shipping at Beer Belly Cologne is climate neutral! We are a partner of "Planet" and therefore automatically offset the CO2 emissions generated during the individual shipping of our packages.
But that's not all. For every order you place with Beer Belly Cologne, the Eden Reforestation Project plants a tree, and together we improve our carbon footprint. Learn more about the project here . Our Impact Report provides transparent updates on our progress.
We collect all our beers directly from regional breweries. Short and direct routes are good for the beer and the environment.
We also receive beer deliveries by mail. We reuse the cardboard boxes provided by the breweries to send you the beer. So don't be surprised if you receive a used, not new, box.
To save resources, especially for our shipping partners, we pack your order in the smallest possible packaging size.
In 2013, a 24-year-old, the son of an Italian-Belgian family, who could not find a secure job as a nurse, died with his last With the money, he brewed a batch of 10 HL, which sold out within a week. He then reinvested the money he earned for months to expand production. And here we are!
Today we are still a small brewery project that focuses on high-quality production, and we sell in several countries.
PHILOSOPHY AND APPROACH
We brew uncompromising beers, inspired by ancient Belgian knowledge, but with an innovative and experimental approach that we call "extreme brewing". We try to share our emotions and spread our feelings with every sip.
We're not here to tell you that we use the best ingredients... It's simply obvious! All our additives (spices, herbs, etc.) are organic and fair trade.
We love pushing the boundaries of beer brewing, overcoming all barriers in the brewing process, and using the +50% ingredients of a classic brewery to brew beers from the gut, with passion, knowledge, and innovation!
PS: A portion of the profits is shared every day and every month with people who don't have enough to live on, and with organizations that care about the planet and its people, because beer is not just a liquid to drink, but to share!
