Boulevard Brewing Company

A day after the resignations of two top Duvel Moortgat USA executives amid mounting accusations that management had turned a blind eye to instances of workplace harassment at Boulevard Brewing Company, John McDonald, the Kansas City craft brewery’s founder, has taken over as interim president.

The top executive of Duvel Moortgat’s U.S. operations resigned today amid a growing number of accusations that management ignored years of accusations of harassment and hostility toward female employees at Boulevard Brewing Company in Kansas City, Missouri.

A day after denying that a former employee was the subject of harassment and pregnancy discrimination, Boulevard Brewing has changed its stance, acknowleded that workplace harassment did occur and apologized. The company has also fired a company executive.

After a former employee shared her story of pregnancy discrimination and examples of a hostile work environment, Boulevard Brewing Company issued a statement today saying the Kansas City, Missouri-based craft brewery takes the accusations “very seriously” but an investigation of the allegations a year ago found “that there was no harrassment or discrimination.”
