Brian Dickson is the co-founder and technical director at Leeds-based Northern Monk.
One of the UK’s finest brewers, he’s been an integral member of the Yorkshire business since it started out in 2014.
And an important part of the brewery’s current path is its journey to carbon neutral operations.
In his recent talk, he shared some of Northern Monk’s achievements to-date in the fields of water, wastage, electricity and nitrogen.
He also outlined the team’s future plans and goals that include biofuel energy generation, process water recycling, AI temperature control and solar installations.
