Palm Beach County, Fla.—Surf
‘N Suds makes soap out of beer and more. Owner Majorie Shedd is passionate
about supporting local breweries. I met Shedd last year at the PGA National Craft
Beer Festival where they had Goose Island IPA beer soap for sale at $7 a bar.

Surf ‘N Suds Soap Company attends a lot of south Florida beer festivals.
Their Goose Island IPA beer
soap had whole hops sticking out the top of the bar. It smelt a little like the
IPA and definitely had the citrusy scent of hops to it.
Surf ‘N Suds Soap Company has
over five Florida based microbrewery beer infused bar soaps, beard oils and
lotions in their collection. If you don’t want beer in your soap you can buy
Sober Soap, beard oils, body lotions without beer. Or you can look at a small
selection of rum infused products.
Surf ‘N Suds does more than
support local breweries. Recently they stopped using Palm Oil in their soaps
for ethical and environmental reasons.
They have two very compelling videos on
their site explaining why they no longer use Palm Oil in their products.
One video features Leo DiCaprio (“Before The Flood,” Nov 2016) that runs for 5 minutes 12 seconds, and the other video with Harris Ford (“Year of Living Dangerously,” Aug 2017) runs for 6 minutes 8 seconds. Both explain the hazards of the Palm Oil industry to the environment.
These
videos will change your mind about buying products that contain Palm Oil.
Surf 'N Suds products
range in price from $7 for bar soap to $12 for beard oils and lotions.
