Toast Ale USA, a social enterprise B Corps, is innovatively addressing food waste in the beer industry. Founded in 2016 and recently expanding into the U.S. market, this unique venture brews award-winning beers using fresh surplus bread, tackling the issue that over 1/3 of fresh bread produced in the USA never gets consumed. By incorporating bread into its brewing process, Toast Ale USA aims to save over 100 tons of bread within three years.
The company's flagship product, an American Pale Ale, boasts rich caramel and citrus notes, reflecting their passion for creating quality beverages and environmental impact. All profits are channeled to the charity Feedback, reinforcing their commitment to the global fight against food waste.
Backed by significant investors such as National Geographic, Heineken, and Paul Polman, and with a £2.00M Early VC investment secured in December 2022, Toast Ale USA is poised for production and distribution growth across the U.S.
