Porifera Launches Draftfox™: A Breakthrough Beer Concentration and Dispense System, at Drinktec 2025
Porifera, Inc.
Porifera today announced the commercial launch of Draftfox™, a revolutionary solution that reinvents how breweries move, store, and serve draft beer. Unveiling September 15 at Drinktec 2025 in Munich, Draftfox combines Porifera’s proprietary beer concentration process with a precision dispensing system—delivering fresh, full-flavored draft beer with 90% less size and weight than traditional kegs.
Using Porifera’s patented Forward Osmosis (FO) technology, beer is brewed traditionally and then gently concentrated by removing water. The result is Ultra High Gravity Beer, reducing beer volume by as much as 6x while preserving the full flavor, aroma, and mouthfeel that brewers and consumers expect. Once packaged into lightweight microkegs, the concentrated beer is dramatically easier to transport and store—cutting cold-chain requirements, lowering freight costs, and reducing CO₂ emissions.
At the point of service, the Draftfox Dispense System reconstitutes and pours the beer with exact control over carbonation, temperature, and flow. For brewers, this means fewer trucks on the road, reduced storage space, and lower logistics costs- all while expanding market reach without compromising quality. For hospitality operators, it eliminates the hassle of traditional keg rooms while still delivering authentic draft beer.
“Draftfox changes the way breweries think about draft,” said Scott Cooper, Chief Commercial Officer of Porifera. “For the first time, brewers can deliver the same great beer their customers love while dramatically reducing the costs, complexity, and environmental footprint of getting it into a glass. We’re excited to offer this technology immediately to breweries around the world.”
Porifera will be exhibiting in Hall C4, Booth 135 at Drinktec, where visitors can experience Draftfox firsthand and taste freshly poured Draftfox beer. Full conference details are available at https://www.porifera.com/events.
Breweries interested in exploring the technology further can also conduct pilot trials at Porifera’s facilities in Toronto, Canada. Draftfox is available for commercial implementation immediately following Drinktec. More information about Draftfox is available at https://www.porifera.com/draftfox-beer.
