The scene that graces our Wolaver’s label is more than a bucolic vista—it is an embodiment of our philosophy. Our vision only just begins with brewing delicious ale of the finest quality; it also extends to the entire ecological and economic landscape. Every beer we brew is a manifestation of our commitment to the welfare of the environment, the welfare of the farming landscape, and the welfare of the consumer. And as this scene suggests, we believe these three core components should be seen not as distinct pieces, but as one integrated whole, each blending imperceptibly into the next. |

Our logo depicts farmers working together, threshing barley by hand, a stone’s throw from the forest edge and the farmhouse brewery on the hill. And that, in short, is our vision—local, organic, collective, green, and handcrafted. At every stage of the beer-making process, we work toward a deeper expression of these values in the modern landscape. Wolaver's has been a pioneer in sustainable brewing since we got our start in 1997. One of the first certified organic breweries in the nation, Wolaver's quickly solidified its role as the premier organic brewing company, as consumers increasingly concerned about health, environment, social ethics, and beer character sought alternatives to mainstream business. Over more than a decade, we have worked raise the bar for sustainable brewing. Our initiatives can be divided into four broad categories; click to see details about each: |
