Bird Brewery
Made Blue

To brew one litre of beer, a brewery uses an average of 4 to 6 litres of drinking water. That is drinking water that is not readily available everywhere in the world. That is why Bird Brewery ensures that the water consumed from the production of its beers is compensated as clean drinking water in developing countries.

About Bird Brewery

Quality beers with a quirky twist. With a lot of knowledge, enthusiasm and the right ingredients, Bird Brewery has been brewing delicious, award-winning beers since 2016. They want to do this as sustainably as possible.

As a fast-growing brewery, we believe we can make an impact on the beer market. Of course we do that with our beers, but we also want to do so by consciously dealing with nature. Due to growth, our CO2 emissions and water consumption have increased considerably. To compensate, we are going to plant trees and donate drinking water every year with partners. This year we are planting ten thousand trees and donating 1.2 million liters of drinking water. That makes an impact.

One litre for one litre

In our program One litre for one litre you can convert the water saving or water consumption of your product, service or organization into an equal amount of litres of clean drinking water in developing countries. Choosing a selection of customers or donating more litres is also an option. Transparency is paramount and we are happy to help you communicate about it!
