Brewgooder (also sold on Social Supermarket) makes lager, session IPA, tropical pale ale, New England IPA and citrus beer. The founder caught a parasite from dirty water while travelling in Nepal and since then, the company uses profits to build clean water projects worldwide. It launched with 1000 crowdfunding and in 3 months, it had created the first project in Malawi, providing clean water to a rural village of over 5000 people.
The range includes:
- New England IPA (hazy and juicy)
- Lager (crispy and zesty)
- Session IPA (hoppy and light)
- Hazy IPA (soft and citrusy)
- Tropical Ale (fresh and fruity)
Some supermarkets have now banned the sale of beers wrapped in plastic rings. Please don’t buy them as they suffocate and injure birds and wildlife, as they are invisible in water. If you see any, just rip the holes and put them in the nearest litter bin. Or ideally place them in local supermarket bag bins, where they can be recycled.
Most lagers these days are vegan including Stella Artois, Becks, Corona and Heineken. Non-vegan beers at time of writing are Fosters and Carling. If you prefer stout, Guinness is vegan but Belhaven is not.
