korev lager and Marine Conservation Society partnership

korev lager named headline sponsor at Marine Conservation Society AGM 2021

korev lager is the headline sponsor at the Marine Conservation Society’s annual conference and AGM 2021: Rewild Our Waters.

Streaming online from 7pm-9pm on Thursday 2nd December, the event will highlight the need to protect and restore the ocean with expert speakers, informative sessions, and a chance to ask questions about the Marine Conservation Society’s vital work to save our seas.

St Austell Brewery’s flagship lager brand celebrated a new partnership with the Marine Conservation Society earlier this year. Born in Cornwall, korev (4.8% abv) unveiled a vibrant new look in April inspired by its home county and the coastline. Supporting green, sustainable initiatives that help safeguard the environment is a mission that’s close to the brand and St Austell Brewery’s heart.

The Marine Conservation Society has been named ‘Charity of the Year’ by St Austell Brewery’s Charitable Trust. Since it was launched in 2003, the trust has donated over £800,000 to charities and causes across the South West.

In April 2018, St Austell Brewery was awarded a prestigious Queen’s Award, for sustainability across its operations and long-term commitment to green brewing and reducing the impact of its business on the environment. The company was praised for its ongoing investments to become more sustainable, including water treatment facilities, the installation of solar panels, achieving zero waste to landfill status across its managed pub estate, and establishing a barley growing partnership with Cornish farms.

Earlier this year, the brewery made the switch to a 100% renewable and sustainable supply of CO₂ (carbon dioxide) - a crucial component in the company’s brewing and production process.

Laura McKay, Head of Marketing for St Austell Brewery’s Beers & Brands said: “We are proud to be the headline sponsor of this year’s event, which will highlight the Marine Conservation Society’s crucial work and why it’s so important that we work together to rewild our waters and safeguard the future of the ocean.

“Teaming up with the Marine Conservation Society, a charity that works tirelessly in its fight against the threat to our oceans, is a natural fit for us. korev is a brand that cares for the coastline and promotes a responsible approach to enjoying all that our unique and beautiful part of the world has to offer.”
