The outdoor clothing company’s food division has just announced that they will be mass-producing a new kind of sustainable beer that is made from a perennial grain called Kernza.
Kernza is ideally suited for organic regenerative agriculture because its long roots and perennial growth allow it to thrive without pesticides and use less water than conventional wheat, while also helping to reduce erosion and remove more carbon from the atmosphere.
