Brewed to Protect the Ocean

The ocean sustains all life on Earth — yet it’s in crisis.
Scientists estimate that around $175 billion per year is needed to restore ocean health. Today, 98% of that funding is still missing.
That’s why we created Ocean Beer: a great-tasting, award-winning beer that donates 100% of its profits to ocean protection.
Thanks to your support, we’ve already been able to donate over €500,000 since 2021 to organisations working on the front lines of marine restoration.
How Does Your Beer Protect the Ocean?
Ocean Beer was born from a simple but bold idea: to turn every beer into real, measurable ocean action.
So when deciding how to donate our profits, we don’t just chase the trendiest or most glamorous projects: we focus on initiatives that deliver the most concrete impact on ocean health, balancing global projects where funds are most needed with local actions that create visible change on our shores.
Deploying Marine Protected Areas around the world
50% of Ocean Beer’s profits fund Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) — one of the most effective, science-backed ways to restore ocean ecosystems.
Thanks to our partnership with Blue Alliance Marine Protected Areas, every Ocean Beer sold protects 210m² of ocean for one year in some of the world’s most biodiverse and threatened regions. The successful recovery of these marine ecosystems is evaluated and independently certified by experts from the Foundation of the CNRS (France’s leading research institution).

Restoring ocean health along Germany’s coasts
The other 50% of Ocean Beer’s profits support local ocean protection and restoration initiatives in Germany, where the beer is brewed and enjoyed.
Each year, our Scientific Advisory Board—a panel of independent ocean scientists across diverse fields—selects projects for their scientific relevance and measurable benefits to local marine life and coastal ecosystems.
Following Ocean Beer’s launch in Germany in 2026, the first project selection session will take place at the end of the year.

Award-Winning Beer.
Real Ocean Impact.
Our multi-award-winning lager, celebrated in several international beer competitions for its exceptional taste, is now available in Germany in a returnable 33 cl bottle.
Each bottle finances the protection of 210 m² of ocean for one year and supports marine restoration projects along Germany’s coastline. This commitment is reflected in our brand-new packaging, where each square represents one Ocean Beer—one gesture for the ocean.
