SXSW Eco Interview: Ian Hughes, Goose Island Brewery
This post is part of Triple Pundit’s ongoing coverage of the SXSW Eco conference. For the rest, please visit our SXSW Eco page here.
Goose Island is one of my favorite Chicago beers and like many quality beers has a solid sustainability story to share. At this year's SXSWeco conference, Goose Island's Assistant Brewing Manager, Ian Hughes and I had a good talk about the efforts the company is making to be more sustainable. Perhaps of equal importance, we also talked about how consumers can be better educated about the efforts of breweries like Goose Island.
Ian and I both agreed that the story of sustainability in brewing should be more widely known - so drink to that next time you sit down for a pint.
