The premium German craft drinks brand continues its retail growth across the Pacific Northwest with key regional distribution and retail partners.

MIDWAY, Utah, April 9, 2026 /BevNET/ -- Brause, the premium and health-conscious take on German craft soda, today announced its expansion into Washington State through a new partnership with Crown Pacific Distribution and launches at two of the region’s most respected retailers, Metropolitan Market and Haggen.

The move marks an important next step in Brause’s West Coast growth and brings the brand’s elevated, non-alcoholic craft beverages to more consumers across the Pacific Northwest. Known for its curated assortment, strong local relevance and premium customer base, Washington is a natural fit for Brause’s positioning at the intersection of flavor, function and lifestyle.

Through Crown Pacific Distribution, Brause will now be available to retailers and partners across the state, with initial launches at Metropolitan Market and Haggen, two iconic banners known for serving quality-driven shoppers and championing thoughtful, premium food and beverage choices.

“Washington felt like a very natural next market for Brause,” said Amna Mettmann, Founder of Brause. “The Pacific Northwest consumer is discerning, ingredient-conscious and open to discovering something new. We are excited to partner with Crown Pacific and to launch with retailers like Metropolitan Market and Haggen that have built real trust with their customers by offering standout, high-quality products.”

Brause is rethinking soda through a more refined, adult lens, inspired by German beverage culture and made for modern consumers seeking something cleaner and more distinctive. The brand’s beverages are naturally sweetened with apples and dates, made with only a handful of whole-food ingredients, and contain no alcohol and no added sugar.

With strong momentum across premium retail, foodservice and hospitality, Brause continues to build distribution in channels that value craftsmanship, taste and a differentiated customer experience.

Brause is available online at drinkbrause.com and continues to expand across select premium retailers, foodservice partners and hospitality venues nationwide.

About Brause: Brause is a premium, health-conscious take on German craft soda. Inspired by German beverage culture and made in the USA, Brause offers a sophisticated, non-alcoholic alternative made with real, whole-food ingredients, naturally sweetened with apples and dates, and crafted without added sugar. Brause is designed for consumers looking for something cleaner, more elevated, and more distinctive than traditional soda.
