Cheers! Porter Airlines has announced a new partnership with Beau's Brewing Co., an Ontario craft brewery, as the airlines' exclusive beer partner for its in-flight service.
Porter is scheduled to resume operations on 08SEP 2021 to select Canadian destinations, and will resume flights to the U.S. on 17SEP 2021, as Open Jaw has reported.
A rotating selection of products will be available to Porter guests, featuring Beau's Lug Tread. Beau's 473 ml tall cans will be offered as part of Porter's onboard service, which includes complimentary snacks, plus beer and wine served in real glassware. The brewery's flagship beer, Lug Tread, is a hybrid-style lagered ale, brewed with malts and hops, and local spring water.
"Beau's has built a reputation for high quality products," said Kevin Jackson, executive vice president and chief commercial officer, Porter Airlines. "We are always looking to partner with brands that align with our values and we see those similarities with Beau's in their commitment to innovation and quality. We're looking forward to our passengers experiencing Beau's refreshing products as part of their onboard experience with Porter."
Beau's Brewing Co. began in 2006 as a family-and-friends-run craft brewery located in Vankleek Hill, Ontario. Since then, they have won over 100 awards for brewing, package design and business practices, including Favourite Local Brewery (Faces of Ottawa Awards, 2019), Best Brewery in Ontario (Golden Taps, 2018), and 4th-Best New Brewery in the World (RateBeer Best, 2017). Beau's is Canada's first Certified Benefit Corporation brewery, recognized for high standards of environmental and social stewardship, and Porter notes that Beau's beer is brewed using 100 percent green electricity.
