Startup CPG Newswire:
Brause Lands Good Stuff Distribution Across NorCal

PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Amna Mettmann for Brause

MIDWAY, UT (JUNE 2025) — Brause, the premium, health-conscious take on Germany’s craft-soda tradition, has sealed a distribution deal with Good Stuff Distributor Inc. that will place its cans on shelves from Sacramento to Santa Cruz beginning the week of June 10.

Good Stuff will carry Brause’s three debut flavors—Apple Soda, Malt Beer and Malt Soda—across its refrigerated Northern California routes. The partnership aligns an adventurous, whole-food beverage brand with a family-owned distributor renowned for curating natural, ingredient-led products.

“From cyclists rolling through Sacramento to surfers finishing dawn patrol in Santa Cruz, NorCal adventurers can finally reach for a guilt-free Brause,” said Amna Mettmann, Brause’s Owner & Operator. “We set out to bring Germany’s iconic effervescent drinks to the U.S., but with a modern, organic twist and zero fake stuff. This launch makes that promise real.”

Inside the can:
• Apple Soda—an authentic “Apfelschorle” re-imagined with only two organic ingredients for crisp apple, zesty lemon and bold fizz; an isotonic post-workout pick-me-up.
• Malt Beer—brewed malt, toasted barley and subtle caramel deliver brewery richness without alcohol; just four organic ingredients and the lineup’s lowest calories.
• Malt Soda—nostalgic “Fassbrause” that marries bright apple fruitiness with earthy botanicals for a festive, alcohol-free toast alongside hearty meals.

Every Brause recipe uses only two to four organic, whole-food ingredients with no added sugars, no alcohol and no synthetic additives, delivering “sharp-bubble” carbonation and elevated flavor at 60 calories or fewer per 12-oz can.
