About Beau’s All Natural Brewing Co. Ltd.:
Father and son Tim and Steve Beauchesne served up the first pint of Beau’s All Natural Brewing Co. Ltd.’s Lug Tread Lagered Ale on Canada Day in 2006 and have been making innovative beers and exercising sustainability practices ever since.
Today, all of Beau’s beers are certified organic and made with 100% certified organic malt and hops, and local spring water. Since its inception, Beau’s wanted to make beer with the best-quality ingredients that could be served fresh, that tasted great, and that people could feel good about drinking.
Beau’s is a proud environmental steward and leader in sustainable craft brewing. In fact in October 2013 Beau’s became the first Canadian brewery to achieve Benefit Corporation (B Corp) certification for their public commitment to maintaining high ethical standards and for their openness and honesty with the people who buy their beer.
Beau’s strongly believes that their commitment to sustainability has played a key role in their success and growth. In fact, the company is currently growing at a rate that is more than four-times the industry average. Beau’s is a great example of a rurally located business that has forged strong connections with urban customers across the province.
Taking pride in creating unique, wonderful and certified organic craft beer, Beau’s products are conceived with honest consideration for the environment and their local communities.
