Berlin Brewery Gets Creative with No-Waste Approach, Using Solar Power for Beer Production

Fuerst Wiacek, a Berlin brewery known for its innovative sustainability practices, has been making waves in the craft beer industry. Utilizing rooftop solar panels to power its production process, the brewery also feeds spent grain to local cows and sells its beer in environmentally friendly tins. Operating for three years, Fuerst Wiacek focuses on high-end craft beer, particularly IPAs and traditional German beers. The brewery’s commitment to sustainability is evident in its efforts to source a significant amount of power from solar energy, as well as its use of natural ingredients in its beers.

One of the brewery’s unique sustainability practices is feeding spent grain to local cows. Every week, a Berlin farmer collects the spent grain from the brewery to feed his cows. The cows eagerly await this treat, highlighting the brewery’s commitment to reducing waste and supporting local agriculture. In addition to feeding spent grain to cows, Fuerst Wiacek also aims to power a significant portion of its operations with rooftop solar panels. While solar power doesn’t currently supply 100% of the brewery’s energy needs, the company is looking to expand its solar panel installation to increase its reliance on renewable energy sources.

Fuerst Wiacek’s beers are made using natural ingredients and are free from preservatives and extra chemicals. Each batch undergoes rigorous testing to ensure its quality and freshness, with a shelf life of less than six months. The brewery exports its beers to 34 countries and regularly collaborates with other companies to create new and innovative brews. One of the brewery’s distinct features is its decision to package its beer in tins rather than bottles. This choice is driven by the brewery’s commitment to environmental sustainability, as tins are lighter and more easily recyclable than glass bottles.

The unique design and eco-friendly packaging of Fuerst Wiacek’s beers have made them stand out in the competitive craft beer market. By selling its beers in tins, the brewery is able to reduce its carbon footprint and promote recycling. According to George Shumay, head of sales at Fuerst Wiacek, the decision to use tins over glass bottles was made to align with the company’s values of environmental responsibility. With a higher recycling rate for aluminium in Germany, tins are a more sustainable packaging choice that aligns with the brewery’s commitment to reducing its environmental impact.

Overall, Fuerst Wiacek’s innovative approach to sustainability in the craft beer industry sets it apart from its competitors. From utilizing rooftop solar panels to feeding spent grain to local cows and selling beer in recyclable tins, the brewery is dedicated to reducing its environmental footprint while producing high-quality, natural beers. With a focus on collaboration, innovation, and environmental responsibility, Fuerst Wiacek is leading the way in sustainable brewing practices and setting a new standard for the industry.
