Brewgooder is a mission-driven craft beer brand with strong social impact credentials but negligible environmental rigor. No formal emissions data, energy strategy, or climate targets exist. Growth is rapid (105% sales increase), yet absolute supply chain emissions likely rise unchecked. B Corp certification masks the absence of measurable sustainability performance.
