Many of us have heard of Boulevard Brewing Company and may have been fortunate enough to tour their facility. However have you heard what Boulevard has been up to lately?
Founded by John McDonald in 1989, Boulevard has rapidly become one of the “largest specialty brewers” in the Midwest. To keep up with the growing demand of their product, Boulevard expanded their brewing capacity to 600,000 barrels in 2006—a huge increase over the 6,000 barrel capacity in John McDonald’s original business plan! With their latest 70,000 square foot building, Boulevard has also served as a model of sustainable and urban architecture and engineering while also taking great efforts to promote sustainable business practices. As they have looked for ways to reduce their environmental impact—programs such as Ripple Glass have been born.
