Apex hotels has partnered with Brewgooder to provide clean water to one million people – by selling craft beer to its guests and visitors in Edinburgh.
The family owned hotel group has partnered with the craft beer label that provides 100% of its profits to clean water projects around the world, to install the first beer tap of its kind in Scotland’s capital.
At Elliot’s Bar and Restaurant within Apex Waterloo Place, for each keg of its craft lager sold two people will be provided with clean water for a minimum of five years.
David Steele, Apex Waterloo Place deputy general manager, said: “We are always keen to work with local suppliers, and Brewgooder not only provides an excellent product, but supports such a good cause – it was an easy decision to become the first company in Edinburgh to provide the new well head fount. We can’t wait for guests and visitors alike to try the taste of Brewgooder and help make a difference to the lives of people around the world.”
Alan Mahon, Brewgooder Founder, added: “Apex Hotels has been a big supporter of ours since we started. It was only right that they were the first hotel to get on board with the well head fount in Edinburgh. We look forward to helping provide many people with clean drinking water through this partnership.”
The Brewgooder lager is now available at Apex Waterloo Place and costs £5.10 per pint.
