Uncompromising Quality

We are IFS/GFSI Certified

At The Garden Brewery, we believe that world-class craft beer is built on a foundation of not only uncompromising quality but also uncompromising safety.

What is IFS Certification?

The International Featured Standards (IFS) is a globally recognized gold standard for safety and quality management; a certification that verifies our production processes meet the highest international benchmarks for safety, quality, and legality. For a craft brewery, this means every step — from sourcing our hops and malt to the canning and kegging — is strictly monitored and audited by independent experts.

Why It Matters to Our Partners (Wholesalers & Retailers)

We aren’t just brewing great beer; we are building a reliable supply chain.

• Ticket to Trade

  Our IFS certification (GFSI-recognised), guarantees we meet the rigorous entry requirements of major European and international retailers.

• Total Traceability

  Reduced Risk: every step of our process is documented and auditable.

• Efficiency

  By adhering to these global standards, we reduce the need for secondary audits, saving time and resources for our trade partners.

• Brand Protection

  Partnering with an IFS-certified brewery ensures that your reputation is backed by a producer committed to continuous improvement and transparency.

• Supply Chain Security

  We have eliminated risks through standardized safety protocols, ensuring a reliable, high-quality supply of beer for your customers.

• The Garden Standard

  Partnering with us means aligning with one of the most technologically disciplined craft breweries in Europe.

Why It Matters to Our Drinkers

When you crack open a can of The Garden you know exactly what’s inside: a great recipe, made with absolute precision.

• Purity in Every Sip

  IFS certification guarantees that our brewery maintains a sterile, controlled environment that exceeds standard food safety laws.

• Consistency You Can Trust

  Our processes are calibrated so whether it's Oseka or Zora our beers taste exactly as they should, every single time you buy it.

• Authenticity

  You can trust our labels —what we say is in the can is exactly what you’re drinking.

• Honest Integrity

  We combine the soul of great brewing with the world’s most advanced safety standard with high-quality ingredients and honest labeling practices.

• Leading the Way

  We are proud to represent Croatian beer on the global stage, and show that independent breweries can and should equate to the highest possible quality standards too.

A Rare Achievement Outside Industrial Multinational Brewers

IFS Certification is a rigorous, independent audit process that is extremely rare in the craft beer industry. While many craft breweries prioritize flavor, we believe that true excellence requires both this as well as innovation and world-class production standards. By achieving this we're proud to be part of a small group of beer producers worldwide who meet the highest possible benchmarks for safety, transparency, and process control.
