UNSW-backed startup Synbiote has introduced the world's first non-alcoholic tea-based beer, ‘Sörzero’.
With Sörzero, Synbiote’s aim is to showcase the potential of sustainable and circular processes in the brewing industry. The non-alcoholic beer is not only crafted with tea as its base, but also uses eco-friendly practices throughout its production.
Synbiote's journey with Sorzero traces back to UNSW's Health 10x Accelerator Program in 2021, which gave a grant to the startup. It was founded by fellow UNSW alumni Ismat Kabbara and Alinta Furnell, who met while completing their research studies at the UNSW School of Biotechnology & Biomolecular Sciences, and Vivid Savitri-Hampton, Global Head of UX at Breville, who met the pair through a mentorship program facilitated by UNSW Founders.
The startup also recently received a grant of $150,000 from Alexis Ohanian (Co-Founder of Reddit, Founder of 776 Foundation) to carry out work in the sustainable waste management space. With a strong focus on creating sustainable and resilient solutions, Synbiote aims to make substantial contributions to mitigating the effects of climate change.
