Brewery LED Lighting Fixtures

What kind of lighting do breweries use?

Breweries use high bay lights over the brewhouse and production floor, vapor-tight fixtures in wet and washdown areas, strip lighting in packaging and storage, and warmer suspended, gooseneck, and string lighting in taprooms and beer gardens.

What lighting should I use in wet or washdown brewery areas?

Use vapor-tight, damp- or wet-rated (IP-rated) fixtures. They're sealed against moisture and built to withstand humidity, splashing, and frequent cleaning in cellars and wet processing zones.

What color temperature is best for a brewery?

Use 4000K to 5000K (neutral to cool white) in production areas for visibility and quality checks, and warmer 2700K to 3000K in the taproom for an inviting atmosphere.

Does color rendering (CRI) matter in a brewery?

Yes. High-CRI lighting helps staff judge the true color and clarity of beer and makes the taproom and product look their best.

How should I light a beer garden or patio?

Outdoor string lights are a popular, cost-effective way to create a warm, welcoming beer garden, and can be paired with wall or gooseneck fixtures for entrances and signage.
