🌱 Organic Ginger Beer Plant (GBP) – Traditional Symbiotic Culture for Naturally Fermented, Fizzy Ginger Beer

Brew authentic, old-world ginger beer with a true Ginger Beer Plant — a rare symbiotic culture of yeast and bacteria used since the 1700s.

Our Organic Ginger Beer Plant (GBP) is a living SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast), not to be confused with the more common “ginger bug.” This rare culture has been passed down through generations and produces a naturally carbonated, probiotic ginger beer with complex flavour, gentle sweetness, and a refreshing tang — no commercial yeast, additives, or forced carbonation needed.


✅ Key Features:

  • 🦠 True Ginger Beer Plant – Yeast + Bacteria SCOBY

  • 🌿 Certified Organic, Non-GMO, and Additive-Free

  • 🍺 Naturally Carbonates Ginger Beer with Wild Fermentation

  • 💪 Probiotic-Rich, Gut-Friendly, and Low in Sugar

  • ♻️ Self-Replicating – Brew Forever with Proper Care

  • No Artificial Sweeteners, CO₂, or Preservatives

  • 🧪 Contains Saccharomyces florentinus and Lactobacillus hilgardii


🔬 What Makes Ginger Beer Plant Special?

Unlike ginger bugs (wild yeast fermentations), the true GBP is a symbiotic culture with documented historical use. It contains:

  • Saccharomyces florentinus (yeast)

  • Lactobacillus hilgardii (lactic acid bacteria)

These work together to:

  • Produce natural carbonation (CO₂)

  • Ferment sugars into mild alcohol (~0.5–2.0%)

  • Deliver beneficial probiotics and organic acids for gut support
    (Holt et al., 1899, Tamang et al., 2016)


💡 Perfect For:

  • Fermentation enthusiasts and home brewers

  • Fans of traditional, historical brewing methods

  • People avoiding commercial sodas and processed drinks

  • Anyone interested in probiotic, craft beverages


📦 What’s Included:

  • 1 portion of Live Organic Ginger Beer Plant (dehydrated or hydrated)

  • Step-by-step instructions for activation and brewing

  • Makes up to 1L in your first batch — reusable and grows with every brew


🥄 How to Brew:

  1. Mix the GBP with water, sugar, and ginger

  2. Ferment at room temperature for 5–7 days

  3. Strain, bottle, and ferment a second time for fizz

  4. Chill, enjoy, and reuse the culture for your next batch!

(Burp bottles daily to release pressure during second fermentation.)
