Protecting our environment also means safeguarding our future. Topics such as sustainability, energy efficiency, local raw material supply chain, or employee satisfaction have long ceased to be trivialities and have long been part of the focus of corporate governance in companies. The competition European Beer Star therefore presents the Future Award for exemplary and sustainable corporate governance. In addition to sustainable management and social responsibility, product quality is also included in the assessment.

The European Beer Star Future Award honors committed breweries for their business activities in accordance with the pillars of sustainability - ecological, economical, social. Breweries that manage to combine their sustainable corporate culture with the highest beer quality can apply for the Future Award. We would already like to thank all participants! Because participation alone proves that the companies are committed to a better world! According to the motto of the European Beer Star:

That's how Stars taste.
