It is no simple task to present brewers with a new supplier, not to mention presenting them with an even newer approach. Since its creation, Brew Shield has received great feedback. At the top of every brewer’s mind is the goal to preserve beer quality, something Brew Shield undertook in 2012 to achieve.

The battle for freshness

It is common knowledge to brewers that oxidation, flavor decline and an extremely short “fresh window” are battles to face when creating a quality IPA. This degradation of hops is an unfortunate factor when considering that hops make up over 15c per can as an average over normal beer. Even more significant is the impact of beer-drinking customers who rely on quality, and a freshly brewed taste. So how do brewers keep their customers satisfied, preserving their beer quality for longer?

Presrving quality

Brew Shield is an agent made specifically for the preservation of the quality that brewers have worked so hard to produce. This means that the fresh taste of a good craft beer lives on even after it has left the brewery.

Brew Shield’s story is not just local. It is a strory that has reached brewers around the world, spanning continents, cultures, brewing styles and storage environments. Uniting it all is the core of craft beer- great taste.

Through the years we have received various feedback from our customers, especially with regards to how BrewShield delivers that ‘just brewed’ freshness for even longer. Overwhelmingly positive feedback such as this is worth appreciating and worth sharing.
