New Belgium is the country’s fourth-largest craft brewery. Last year, the company sold 950,752 barrels of beer — distributing to all 50 states. Outside Magazine determines its annual list with a two-part employee survey process evaluating each company’s workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics. The winning companies are those that value productivity in combination with an active, eco-conscious lifestyle, for a fulfilling experience inside and outside the office, the magazine states.
