A circular project

At Draft granola we help to give beer grains a second life. We transform this brewery byproduct into wholesome granola, embodying a sustainable loop from beer production to breakfast enjoyment.

Microbrewery

Grain is the main ingredient used to brew beer. The residual grain remaining after production is referred to as ‘spent grain’. A resource rich in fibers and proteins!

Recovering grain

Due to the absence of a waste management solution, we have taken the initiative to recover spent grain and repurpose it, giving it a renewed sense of value

Upcycling grain

We upcycle spent grain into a variety of different flavored granolas, using local ingredients like recycled chocolate and artisanal honey

Draft granola

Become part of the circular movement and indulge in our locally hand-baked granola, a perfect breakfast, snack, or dessert!
