Beer brewing has started to turn into a very popular trend, and people have started to create companies and make money out of this. The question is what are they using to make this beer?

They use bread. It's a source that's very easy and popular to find. You can make it, buy it, but the majority of these companies use leftovers, and pieces which have been thrown away. Up to 40% of bread is being thrown away in the UK , which is around 1 million loaves being wasted. 

A group of students in Nottingham are making bottles of beer to help prevent child poverty. They use 1 third bread, 2 thirds malt barley and 1000 litres of water, which in total creates a 2000 litre batch of beer. The profits they create are all given to Social Enterprise, Footprint. This goes towards child food poverty which they think is a very deep subject and situation in their community.

Their beer that they create is called 'Baker's Pale Ale' and is currently being sold across 19 pubs in Nottingham. Andrei Smirnov, one of the students, tells us about how they're going to add other ingredients into the beer in the coming future, such as coffee beans, vegetables, and potentially even potatoes, he says it's all to do with saving the environment.
