The custom-designed, light-weight beer bottles Verallia North America manufactured for Green Flash Brewing Company’s West Coast IPA beer won the GPI’S 2013 President’s Choice Award for Advancements in Sustainability.
These innovative 12 and 22 ounce glass beer bottles feature an international style and expected volume and size, yet weigh significantly less than earlier versions. The revamped packaging design reduces the costs and carbon footprint associated with producing, filling and distributing the beer.
