Pain de Minuit rolls into WTCE for first time

Pain de Minuit, a brewer that takes discarded bread rolls and turns them into beer, has made its debut at the World Travel Catering and Onboard Services Exposition in Hamburg.

An award-winning French brewery that is already stocked on Eurostar, Pain de Minuit sees its role as being both a premium innovation and a powerful communication tool around sustainability.

The brewer collects unsold bread from airlines and railway caterers and turns it into craft beer of the alcoholic and non-alcoholic variety, in stylish bottles.

Pain de Minuit collects recoverable bread waste —  either directly from the airline or railway or from industrial bakery partners — and then replaces up to 30% of brewing cereals with it.  

The firm can be found in the New Exhibitor Village at WTCE on stand 1B106.
