100% Solar Energy

Our solar PV system converts sunlight directly into electricity that powers all our operations at the brewery. We have operated on 100% solar power since 2013. Enjoy your beer with a clear carbon conscious! 

Zero Waste

Spent grain from the brew process is sent to feed the free-range cows at our organic dairy. Feeding our cows this high-nutrient grain increases milk production by 10% and allows the dairy to produce fresh cheese daily. The cow's waste is collected into a biodigester where bacteria convert it into methane gas. This gas is then sent back to the hotel to increase our sustainable energy stores. 

Moving Forward

Our latest project is to reconfigure our brew system completely. By stacking the tanks vertically we will allow gravity to do the work for us, eliminating the need for pumps. Water heated in solar collectors will be sent to a hot liquor tank on the roof where it will wash over the grain. Once fermentable sugars are extracted, they will fall down into the kettle to boil before descending into the heat exchanger and fermenters.

Sustainability

Protecting our home  is important to us. We are grateful for the beautiful surroundings here in Lake Arenal and we rely heavily on the outstanding water quality for our beer. We are constantly working to limit our impact on our environment and keep this wonderful earth green.
