Toast Grassroots Pale Ale

Toast describe this as "Golden. Zesty. Planet-Saving."

The latter comment comes from the brewery's commitment to addressing food waste, by replacing around a third of the barley used to brew their Pale Ale with surplus fresh bread. With one third of all food wasted and food production being the biggest climate change contributor, reducing that waste is their contribution to fighting climate change. Hence "planet-saving". Further, all their profits go to charities trying to fix the food system.

Does it work? Well, the proof of the beer is in the drinking, and Toast Pale Ale drinks pretty well! The bread, along with malted barley, delivers a smooth, malty flavour with an appealing citrussy hop note from the British hops.
