Can You Take Expired Beer & Turning It Into Gin, Vodka, & Whiskey?

Beer has a shorter shelf life than wine and spirits have, so Rebru Spirits takes over-stocked, unsold, expired beer from San Diego breweries that are destined for the drain and repurposes it into gin, vodka, and whiskey.
Their methods deviate from the norm due to an innovative approach to limit the impact on the environment.
ReBru was built on the idea of upcycling, best and better practices, and having less of a negative impact on our environment. This is who they are as a company.
Everything they use at ReBru is sourced locally when possible, organic when feasible, and repurposed when logical. Rebru thinks about the footprint of each ingredient before using it in their spirits, while still delivering smooth and delicious spirits.

Welcome to the official KZbin Channel of Beer, Wine & Spirits
Hi, I’m Jeff Bradford. My passion for beer, wine, and spirits ignited an urge to investigate the stories behind the labels.
🌏 So, in 2018, I sold everything I owned to travel the world.
My objective: to learn the secrets of brewers, winemakers, and distillers.
From Switzerland to Jalisco, I set out to determine why their process yields extraordinary results.
With each stop on the map, I reveal time-honored traditions, cultural influences, and industry practices that help you discover the soul of these incredible products.
As a former member of the US military, I learn by doing.
You’ll see me harvesting grapes in South Africa, pouring beer at Oktoberfest, and chopping agave in Tequila.
➡️ My channel is dedicated to the passionate, hardworking people who make the beverages associated with our favorite celebrations, special events and amazing moments with those we love.
Join me as I find the next fascinating story about your favorite Beer, Wine, and Spirits.
Cheers!

Non-alcoholic beer. Make spirit from alcoholic beer & then add the spirit to non-alcoholic beer to make fortified beer.

[@drinkdestinations]

Hahahahahhaa love it.

Bro make distilled alcohol without adding yeast to ferment use fruit s shugar and water 😁

[@sevelofficial2696]

Video idea and place for you to check out: In Rüdenau Bavaria there is a single malt whisky distillery called St. Killian. They have excellent whisky with what I think are the coolest looking bottles shaped like pot stills. Each whisky is numbered and my personal favorite is number Six 👍🏻 Also cheers from San Diego!

[@drinkdestinations]

Awesome, thanks for sharing and I will def check them out. Cheers, -Jeff

[@antonblok7183]

Hey would you know if they would be willing to share the recipe and knowledge with someone in the Caribbean. We have the same problem and would love to set up a sister company down here. If you could help please let me know. Regards from a subscriber from Aruba

[@drinkdestinations]

Thanks so much for the comment and contact them at [e-mail] I appreciate the support and need to come check out Aruba one of these days. Cheers, Jeff

[@Quintinohthree]

Can their whisky really be called that given it obviously has hops in its production process?

[@drinkdestinations]

Great question, With a small number of exceptions, whiskey in the United States must: Be distilled to less than 95% ABV and stored in oak containers; Be bottled at a minimum of 40% ABV; and Possess the taste, aroma and characteristics generally attributed to whisky. These requirements apply to all whiskey, American or otherwise. To be labeled a straight whiskey, the whiskey must be aged at least two years and contain no additives. Within American whiskey, the law defines more specific categories of whiskey such as bourbon, rye, corn etc.

After a long time

[@drinkdestinations]

It’s been a while. Travel is getting back to “normal”. And it’s go time! As always I appreciate the support and hope you enjoy the episodes. Cheers, -Jeff

[@CaskTheology]

My, what an interesting idea! Shame they're U.S based, we had to chuck away a lot of beer during the UK lockdowns a few years back. I'd certainly want to try one of their whiskey creations.

[@drinkdestinations]

Yeah, I was surprised how much beer goes unsold and goes pst expired date and essentially goes down the drain. I tried to get info on how they do it, but obviously they shared as much as they could. Yeah they also have an absinthe as well and experimenting with coffee like was mentioned I believe in the video. Cool concept indeed. Cheers and thanks for the support and comment. -Jeff

[@tripledprojects]

Up in Scotland Brewdog distill their bad batches into “Bad Beer Vodka” which isn’t consumer recycling/repurposing but the processing is likely the same

[@elyeddy276]

Out of this world! 👽. Don't get left behind = Promo-SM!!!

[@georgekutty9988]

Come to Kerala

It’s definitely on the list of places to travel. I’m glad travel is starting to get back to “normal” again.
