WATERLOO, ON, Jan. 11, 2012/CNW/ - Brick Brewing Company (TSX: BRB) was today officially certified under British Retail Consortium (BRC) Global Standards for Food Safety, one of the highest and most internationally recognized standards for safe food production. "This recognition is the culmination of an ongoing focus to provide the highest quality products we can to our hardworking customers." said Russell Tabata, Chief Technical Officer, Brick Brewing Company. "For us, quality starts with ensuring our products meet, or exceed, the highest standards for food safety. Achieving an A-rating, the highest certification score possible, is a clear testament to Brick's ongoing commitment to achieving this standard."
Brick Brewing Company has been a craft brewing industry leader since it established the category in 1984. "We are the only craft brewer in Canadato be certified under the BRC Global Standard for Food Safety." offered George Croft, President and CEO, Brick Brewing Company. "I am incredibly proud of the team here at Brick Brewing for their unwillingness to accept good enough.

The BRC Global Standard for Food Safety was established in 1996 to create a single, internationally recognized standard for food safety. "There is no higher standard for food safety than this global food safety certification.
