This is number 7 out of 10 in our '10 Beers 4 10 Years' anniversary series, celebrating 10 years of brewing at F&L. Green to Gold is a strong Belgian style blonde beer which celebrates our passion for sustainability at the brewery.

You can see a short video of the making of this beer here. 

Organic Mandarina Bavaria hops bring a sweet orange vibe which works really nicely in harmony with the fruity, spicy and banana notes which the Abbaye yeast has created during fermentation. Our core beer range covers a very wide range of beer styles and distinct characteristics by using a very wide range of hops, malts and yeast varieties. It's impossible at the moment to source equivalents of all of these ingredients which are fully organically grown but we are in constant communication with our suppliers about their sustainability values and actions. We value the steps all of our suppliers are making in positive steps in reducing their environmental impact, just the same as we are trying our best to do within our own business. Things are most certainly heading in the right direction, with the whole industry thinking carefully about how each step of the agricultural and brewing process can tread more lightly on the earth.

We are passionate about sustainability and trying to reduce our impact on the planet. We're not perfect by any means, for us sustainability is a continuous journey rather than a destination. Our brewery is powered by 100% renewable energy (and has been for 10 years), we also (like many of our peers) continuously look to reducing and reusing our waste products. For this beer we have researched and utilised the finest organic ingredients we could find. Organic malt, oats, hops & yeast are combined to translate our green ethics into a decadent and rich golden treat of a beer!
