Documentary Film BEER! A Love Story To Support Water Conservation As Beer’s Most Important Ingredient
Now through April 25, RadCraft will donate $1 from each rental the documentary BEER! A Love Story to Protect Our Rivers.
DURANGO, CO— This April, RadCraft is proud to support healthy rivers in partnership with BEER! A Love Story. Now through April 25, RadCraft will donate $1 from each rental of this sensational documentary about craft beer to Protect Our Rivers.
Like rivers, breweries tend to be a source of culture and community. They also consume a great deal of water for which RadCraft makes a point to acknowledge in its philanthropic efforts. RadCraft’s work and our passion is rooted in the elements, one reason we were drawn to filmmaker Friedrich Moser. His close connection with nature shines in BEER! A Love Story, which captures the raw beauty of barley fields in rural Italy, Austrian and Northwest hop farms, and beyond. He ventures across landscapes, cultures, countries, and languages through subtitles in this both realistic and romantic movie.
BEER! A Love Story debuted earlier this year. This independently funded, 4K full-length feature documentary weaves together the stories of more than 30 international characters who speak the universal language of beer. Rent it here and learn more at beermovie.org.
Meet protagonists and filmmaker Moser on Earth Day, Thursday April 22 for a live virtual panel and movie preview. Participants at this free event can interact with the cast and view scenes in the film. More information to follow.

BEER! A Love Story was produced by Director Friedrich Moser and Maarten Schmidt.

In BEER! A Love Story, Moser profiles a cast of U.S.-based craft beer personalities including Peter Bouckaert, Steve Hindy, Julia Herz, Greg Engert, European namesakes such as Rodenbach, Orval and Stiegl, and small, breakout brewers like Bierol in Austria and Cloudwater in Manchester, UK.
