Sustainability practices:
BREWVANA supports the brewing industry and tourism industries in Portland by encouraging beer travel to our city and bringing business to the local businesses in town. By helping local small craft breweries, we are helping to stimulate the economy in our community. We have a commitment to sourcing local to other sustainably practicing businesses and have local partnerships to help support our community and donate more than 1% of sales to nonprofit organizations. All of our buses are fueled by biodiesel and we transport 14-44 people at a time to reduce the # of cars on the road and possibly intoxicated people behind the wheel. We are conscious about our footprint and encourage bike transportation for employees and have an incentive program. We strive to be as paperless as possible with digital documents and waivers on our ipads. We value our employees and offer simple IRA and health insurance to full-time staff and we are working towards full-time employment for all. We encourage responsible and respectful consumption of alcohol and educate people so they become a more valuable consumer. It is our purpose to spread craft beer awareness and appreciation globally through our fun and educational beer tasting experiences.
