Xing Yue Xuan is Singapore’s Newest Rising Star at Resorts World Sentosa

OMG! (Oh My Guts!) joins in the SG60 celebrations with a bubbly twist! 

Zesty Gut Pte Ltd and Probicient Pte Ltd – the companies behind Singapore’s first probiotic wheat beer OMG! Probiotic Beer – are rolling out a series of in-kind sponsorships for SG60 events leading up to National Day Parade 2025. 

This milestone marks more than just a toast to the nation—it’s a refreshing celebration of innovation, science, and shared good times with everyone!

Brewed at 4.2% ABV and created in collaboration with the National University of Singapore’s (NUS) Food Science and Technology Department startup Probicient, OMG! Probiotic wheat beer delivers a crisp, easy-going flavor with a gut-friendly bonus. 

The live probiotics don’t alter the taste, they balance it! Think beer, but even better: smooth, refreshing, and great for your gut.

Probiotics are well-known for supporting digestion and strengthening the immune system. What sets OMG! Probiotic Beer apart from the rest is its patented fermentation tech, developed with Probicient, ensuring that each bottle contains live probiotics at levels comparable to a daily supplement. 

This brewing breakthrough not only preserves the probiotics’ natural antimicrobial properties but also keeps the flavor crisp and uncompromised. 

 It’s a fitting toast to Singapore’s innovative spirit in a milestone year, where tradition meets transformation, and where every sip is both a celebration and a step towards wellness.

So, tofu as…ice cream…exists?

Yes! Singapore’s first crafted tofu-based gelato, TOFU G, has officially launched with a pop-up at Mandarin Gallery. At the heart of this concept is clean indulgence, thoughtful ingredients, and the magic of traditional Korean tofu-making, reimagined for today’s dessert lovers.

Each scoop is creamy, light, and protein-rich: a guilt-free treat made to satisfy without heaviness, and as a refreshing, honest option, offering vegan-friendly and dairy-free options and flavors for those seeking something new and healthy. 

A Modern Take on Korean Craftsmanship

TOFU G’s philosophy is anchored on the values of clean and mindful living and refined Korean craftsmanship. Inspired by Korean artisanal tofu-making methods, TOFU G delivers a one-of-a-kind experience that is both novel and rooted in tradition.

Every batch of gelato is thoughtfully made with natural ingredients — like non-GMO soybeans, roasted black sesame, and sweet potato — reflecting a mindful approach to dessert.
