Manage episode 427700330 series 2781828
🌿 In this episode of Eating at a Meeting, I'm thrilled to introduce you to Rob Vandenabeele, founder of ecofriendlybeer.com. 🍻✨ Rob brings a wealth of knowledge from his deep dive into the craft beer scene, and with his impressive background in sustainability from Harvard Extension School, he's a crusader for a greener brewing industry.
Together, we dive into the waste-heavy side of brewing and explore innovative methods for repurposing spent grain, turning what was once discarded into nutritional flour for foods like bread and snacks. We discuss how this eco-conscious approach not only bolsters sustainability but opens up new revenue streams for breweries.
From the rustic rooftop hops of Pittsburgh Convention Center to the inspiring Craft for Climate initiative that sparks meaningful conversations about our planet—our chat is brimming with practical insights and inspiring stories. 🎤💡
Rob shares his journey initiating the reuse and recycling of those pesky non-recyclable beer can carriers, making a tangible difference within his community and beyond. We even touch on the economic and environmental perks of selling beer straight from the taproom and supporting local breweries to keep our communities thriving.
🍺 Tune in to find out how you can contribute to a better world by simply choosing your next beer thoughtfully—be it from a refillable growler or reusable keg. And did I mention breweries partnering with local bakeries to create delicious bread from leftover grain?
Let’s embrace eco-friendly practices and take small steps towards sustainability, one frosty pint at a time. 🌏
