About

Almost a decade ago we began working with Upper Chattahoochee Riverkeeper (UCR) to help them in their mission of protecting the river which provides clean water for millions of folks in the southeast (quite possibly you and definitely our brewery!)

What began as donating cases of SweetWater for fundraisers and post river cleanup refreshments, turned into the "Save the Hooch" Campaign raising more than $250,000 to date for UCR's mission.

The success of the campaign has spread throughout the Southeast to other local communities and their local Waterkeepers®. Waterkeeper Hefeweizen continues our mission to raise awareness for Waterkeepers® and assist them in their fight to preserve our rivers, streams, and coastlines.

Waterkeeper® Alliance is a global movement uniting 200 Waterkeepers® that focuses citizen advocacy on the pollution issues that impact our waterways and communities. Waterkeepers® patrol more than 1.5 million square miles of rivers, streams, and coastlines in the Americas, Europe, Australia, Asia and Africa.

Waterkeeper® Alliance provides a way for communities to stand up for their right to clean water and for the wise and equitable use of water resources, both locally and globally. The vision of the Waterkeeper® movement is for fishable, swimmable and drinkable waterways worldwide.

Our belief is that the best way to achieve this vision is through the Waterkeeper® method of grassroots advocacy. To find your local Waterkeeper® and to support our goal of clean water and strong communities, visit: waterkeeper.org
