The GBCFC’S beer and wine department is committed to serving a mix of sustainably produced, organically grown, and locally brewed beer and wine.
As we conduct our business, we will:
-
Source as much beer and wine as possible from local vineyards and breweries.
-
We will not source beer internationally, as there are more than 5,000 quality microbreweries in the USA.
-
We will not source beer from large-scale breweries that produce more than 15,000 barrels a year, or from their subsidiaries.
-
Emphasize the purchase of beer and wine made organically and biodynamically.
-
Although the FDA does not require ingredient lists for wine, we will voluntarily provide the following information for all our wine:
-
Local – is it made in our local foodshed?
-
Organically grown – was it made with certified organic grapes?
-
Biodynamic – was it produced with certified biodynamic practices?
-
Fair Trade – when the wine is coming internationally, is it providing fair wages to farm labor?
-
Vegan – does the wine refrain from using animal-based fining agents?
-
Sulfite-free – is the wine produced without these chemical preservatives?
