Locher Brewery

Regional raw materials: Wherever possible, ingredients are sourced from Switzerland in order to minimise transport routes and support local agriculture.

Organic-certified range: Locher brews several beers according to Bio-Suisse standards - including Naturperle, Weizenbier and Gran Alpin. The beer is brewed with organic barley from the Grisons mountains and spring water from the Alpstein.

Upcycling instead of waste: Under the brewbee brand, brewery by-products such as malt spent grains and brewer's yeast are processed into new, sustainable foods - including crisps, muesli and pizza bases. This saves raw materials and reduces food waste. Read more here.

Climate Mission: Together with other food producers, the brewery is committed to improving the utilisation of waste materials and demonstrating how the circular economy works in practice. Read more here.

Sustainable energy: The brewery uses biogas from its own waste water as fuel for steam generation - an important step towards climate-friendly production. The company also favours renewable energies.

Birra da Ris
Birra da Ris is a speciality from Locher that is aimed at anyone who wants to or has to live gluten-free - but still doesn't want to miss out on a full-bodied beer. The speciality: It is brewed with rice from the Maggia Delta in Ticino - one of the few places in Switzerland where rice is grown sustainably. The result: a light, fresh beer with fine malt flavours that not only impresses with its taste, but also with its regional and resource-friendly production.

Appenzeller Leermond
Appenzeller Leermond is a full-bodied, dark blonde non-alcoholic beer brewed on the still nights of the new moon. Careful selection of the best malt and hop varieties and long, cool storage give it its intense, malty flavour. With a subtle sweetness and a light, dry hop flavour, it is ideal for enjoyable, relaxed evenings. Serving temperature: 4-5°C
