We’re proud to announce that Honeymoon Brewery has officially been awarded a United States Patent for our proprietary fermentation and brewing system.

Patent Title: Kombucha-Based Alcoholic Beverage Brewing System and Method

Patent Number: US 12,359,149 B2

Issue Date: July 15th, 2025

Developed with technical assistance from Los Alamos National Laboratory and refined over nearly a decade of research, this patent protects the system-level method that allows us to create clean, functional, gut-friendly kombucha-based alcohol with consistency, integrity, and flavor.

This patent isn’t just a technical milestone, it’s a symbol of what's possible when deep R&D, small business creativity, and fermentation craft come together.

What This Means:

We’re now actively opening licensing opportunities for beverage brands (MNE's), hospitality groups, wellness companies, and brewers who want to work with a patented, proven, and ready-to-scale fermentation method.

With this patent, Honeymoon Brewery evolves into Honeymoon Beverage Co., a platform for next-generation functional and fermented beverages, alcoholic and non-alcoholic alike.
