Scholarship aims to increase diversity in craft beer industry
From CBC News
Dominion City Brewing partnering with Niagara College
An Ottawa brewery is hoping to challenge the perception that craft beer is just for hipster bros by offering a scholarship aimed at encouraging more diversity in the industry.
Dominion City Brewing started the scholarship in conjunction with Niagara College in Niagara Falls, Ont., to help graduates break into craft brewing.
It will be awarded annually to one student in the college’s brewmaster program from “a background presently underrepresented in the industry.”
