FAQ

• WHAT DOES WILD FERMENTED MEAN, AND WHY DOES IT MATTER?

  We let yeast and bacteria that are naturally occurring on fruit and in our juicery ferment our beverages. This means we do not have to add any lab-created monocultures of yeast, we just let Mother Nature do the work!

• WHY DOESN’T IT NEED TO BE REFRIGERATED TO KEEP THE PROBIOTICS ALIVE?

  Probiotics don’t require refrigeration, however we understand why you may think that. The majority of probiotic commercial beverages (alcoholic or not), are not completely fermented, so there is still sugar in the can or bottle. When yeast and bacteria eat sugar, they produce carbon dioxide (among other things), so these types of beverages require refrigeration to make those microorganisms go dormant and stop producing gas, which would over-carbonate the beverage or rupture the container. Our hard pressed juices are completely fermented to dry, meaning there is no sugar remaining, so there is no chance of our microorganisms producing any additional gas.

• HOW CAN IT CONTAIN FRUIT, YET BE ZERO SUGAR?

  Fermentation naturally consumes all of the sugar in our juices, and we don’t reintroduce any sweeteners or sugars.

• IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE ADDED BESIDES WHAT IS LISTED ON THE LABEL?

  We strive for honesty and transparency in our lives, and this philosophy extends to our beverages. What you see on our labels is what you get.

• WHY DON’T I TASTE SOME OF THE INGREDIENTS, YET I PICK UP OTHER NOTES?

  When no sugar is present, certain fruits, herbs and mushrooms do not retain the same taste commonly associated with them. So why are they there?! Well, the short answer is function. Just because you don’t taste them, doesn’t mean they aren’t bringing you medicinal benefits or bolstering the flavors of other ingredients.

• IS IT VEGAN AND KETO FRIENDLY?

  All of our ingredients are source verified, non-GMO, and vegan. Because we ferment to zero sugar and allow for the wild yeast to consume any remaining carbohydrates, our beverages are also Keto friendly. We get our beverages lab tested frequently to ensure that we aren’t overpromising.

• HOW DOES IT USE SO MUCH LESS WATER TO PRODUCE THAN BEER OR KOMBUCHA?

  All of the apples and other fruits we use are sustainably farmed. Because we are a wild fermentation facility, we do not require the amount of water nor the harsh chemicals you would find in most kombucha or beer breweries. We pride ourselves on bringing you a great product with the smallest possible environmental footprint.
