How the Beer Industry is Embracing Sustainability
Philadelphia, PA - Whether it is wine or beer, brewing is not necessarily a practice that performs well in sustainability. The process requires a lot of water, along with a significant amount of energy and gas spent on fermentation and shipping. There are also the spent grains and hops, along with the byproducts of canning. Requiring around seven barrels of water to make one beer barrel also leaves behind a significant amount of undrinkable water. So what to do with such huge wastes? It is a question the brewing industry is trying to solve earnestly.
