Urb-it-Freestar.pdf About Freestar:
· Freestar was founded in 2019 with a mission to provide the first truly non-alcohol, great tasting, sustainable beer.
· Co-founders Eddy Dallas, Felix von Hunter, and Charlie Crawley, have since created an award-winning alcohol-free beer brand after being crowned the 2019 world beer award winners for the UK's best low alcohol beer.

· In July 2020, Firestar became the first alcohol free beer to certify as a B Corporation, with a common goal of building a more inclusive and sustainable economy.
· Freestar is better for the planet, the brand's unique production process emits 90% less Co2, uses 80% less water, 80% less energy and creates 70% less waste than other production methods.
