He added that ABL’s team of brewing experts uses high quality ingredients, such as maize grits, hops, and barley, to brew beverages under local and international standards to ensure that consumers remain delighted with our products.Bottling our Beer
At our packaging lines, ABL’s Training Controller, Ms. Georgina Kyei Baffour, also emphasised ABL’s attention to quality when packaging beverages.She mentioned that every step of the packaging process highlights efficiency and quality. For instance, she explained that the packaging process is fully automated to carry out a number of checks such as washing bottles and inspecting them for imperfections.
