  • (Mar 01, 2024)
    In 2020, in the heart of the pandemic, Bear Maple founder and CEO Brian Bethke and his family were sheltered-in-place in the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York. On their daily outings, he and his daughter discovered maple trees and ginseng growing in the wild. A serial entrepreneur and lifelong learner, Brian set off on a journey of discovery and a deep dive into the voluminous research documenting the functionality of ginseng as well as maple water. He combined the two in a beverage and Bear Maple was born.

    The Bear Maple team set out to be the first to bring hydroponically grown ginseng to the beverage market in an adaptogenic, sparkling elixir. Bear Maple’s mission is to craft innovative, functional beverages that help nourish both the body and mind while fostering a sustainable future for the planet. Its functional sparkling ginseng beverages are crafted with high-quality ginseng, naturally sweetened with maple water, and are caffeine free. Bear Maple is 1% for the Planet certified, and the company donates 1% of its annual sales directly to vetted environmental partners.

    Bear Maple will be available in Q2 2024 in four SKUs: Ginseng, Ginger, Lemongrass Mint and Yuzu Citrus, each featuring simple, clean ingredients you can pronounce, all derived from nature. Each 12-ounce can (MSRP $4.49) of Bear Maple Sparkling Ginseng Elixir contains less than 20 calories per serving, is caffeine free and sweetened naturally with maple water.
