Wild becomes method

In the Dolomites, a brewer, a scientist, and a wild herb gatherer combine their perspectives and expertise: Forgotten ingredients are transformed into reimagined beverages. FERAL – wild and untamed – represents the courage to leave familiar paths and bring the unexpected to the glass.

Lacto-fermentation, maceration, precision & innovation

FERAL doesn't ferment teas, but rather "humble ingredients" like white and red beets or birch sap using lactic acid fermentation – this creates complex aromas and a fine, supportive acidity. The ferments are then nuanced with macerated roots, spices, herbs, woods, and blossoms to sharpen texture, spice, and floral notes. In 2025, a lightly sparkling rosé, N° 5, was added to the range: birch sap as a base, accentuated by lemon verbena, yarrow, nettle, horseradish, and aronia juice – with a fine, persistent perlage.

Own category, clear texture

FERAL is a "botanical fermented" tea – a unique line beyond the usual categories. Herbal, spice, and woody notes meet fermentation depth and a calm tea structure. Each number has its own distinct character: from No. 1 (white beet, hops, Szechuan) to No. 4 (red beet, lavender, juniper) as quiet companions at the table; No. 5 adds a subtle vibrancy and a fine finish.

Feral from the Dolomites creates wild-fermented drinks shaped by roots, herbs and birch sap — precise, layered and alive. A brewer, a scientist and a herbalist merge their craft to define a new kind of non-alcoholic wine alternative / wine proxy. Instead of tea or grapes, Feral uses lactic fermentation, maceration and botanical blends to build structure and depth. The range reads as a bright non-alcoholic white-wine option, a textured non-alcoholic orange-wine option, and a tense as well as softer, herbal non-alcoholic red-wine option — still gastronomic no/low drinks.
