Brewery Insurance
Brewery Relocation Insurance
Moving a brewery is a big job: tanks, pipework, cool rooms and stock all have to be lifted, trucked and reinstalled. Each stage carries a risk of damage.




Example
How cover can respond in practice
During a move, a fermenter slips from a hoist and is dented. The riggers’ liability insurance may respond, or transit cover on the brewery’s side, depending on the contract and what was arranged.
