Why Brewers and Makers Love Our Aseptic Cranberry Puree
Cranberries are one of just three fruits native to North America that are grown commercially (the others being blueberries and Concord grapes). Known for their bold tartness and vibrant color, cranberries have been used for centuries by Native Americans as food, dye, and even medicine. Today, their sharp, refreshing flavor is finding new life in beers, beverages, and more—especially when delivered as a clean, shelf-stable aseptic fruit puree.
Why Oregon Cranberries Stand Out
The unique climate and soil of the Oregon coast make it a premier growing region for high-quality cranberries. Our state produces over 6% of the U.S. cranberry crop. How are Oregon cranberries superior? What sets our berries apart is Oregon's long growing season and coastal climate, which allow the fruit to ripen slowly and develop a deeper red hue. The result? Oregon cranberries are naturally higher in soluble sugars and lower in acidity than other cranberries—and ideal for aseptic puree production.
Not only does this enhance the flavor and aroma, but Oregon cranberries are also known for higher levels of A-type proanthocyanidins, the compounds credited with many of cranberry’s health benefits.
Aseptic Cranberry Puree: Tart, Dry, and Versatile
Our aseptic cranberry puree delivers a bold tartness and dry finish that’s perfect for craft brewers, kombucha producers, and other beverage innovators. The flavor lends itself naturally to sour styles like Goses and Berliners, but can also be blended with sweeter fruits like raspberry, orange, or pomegranate to round out the profile for lighter ales like Kölsch, blondes, and lagers.
