EL SEGUNDO, Calif., Aug. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beyond Meat, Inc. (NASDAQ: BYND), otherwise known as Beyond The Plant Protein Company™, today announced that Beyond Immerse is now available at Erewhon locations across Southern California. The launch marks the next chapter in the rollout of the brand's first functional beverage line, following its introduction to consumers in the New York metropolitan area through Big Geyser and its availability nationwide through the company’s direct-to-consumer website.

"Bringing Beyond Immerse to Erewhon represents an exciting next step for our first functional beverage line," said Ethan Brown, Founder and CEO of Beyond Meat. "We created Beyond Immerse to deliver the superpowers of plants in one light and refreshing drink, and we look forward to bringing it to Erewhon, a retailer that has long been at the forefront of what's next in wellness and reaches a community deeply engaged in how nutrition can support everyday life."

Beyond Immerse brings a new kind of functional beverage to Erewhon, reflecting a shared commitment to thoughtfully crafted nutrition and products made with simple ingredients. Beyond Immerse combines four distinct beverage offerings—plant protein, fiber, antioxidants, and electrolytes—in one lightly sparkling can. Available in Peach Mango, Strawberry Lemonade, and Cherry Berry, each can delivers 20g of plant protein, 5g of fiber, antioxidants, and electrolytes for just 110 calories, with no dairy or whey protein.
