Oh Oh, Omg, who wants to make the Budweiser joke? I mean it will need a little modification but COME ON!!

Canoes, close to water etc…

Breweries use a fuck ton of water, doing this would cut down on the strain on the municipality and possibly offer them a tax break.

Hey I am all for it. The alcohol from the beer would kill off any remaining bacteria anyway. I would definitely give this a shot, especially if it were an IPA.

It’s not the alcohol of the beer which kill the remaining bacteria and co, but the high temperature during the brewing process.

I mean the technology has been around. There was talks about using it for California, but people would rather suffer through a drought than use purified wastewater.

HobbitFoot ,

Some towns do use it, they just don’t make it a big deal to their residents how they are getting their water.

Oh cool! I definitely think it’s something that ought be adopted at a larger scale.

I live in Sweden, one of the countries with the most freshwater per capita in the world, and even so, for the past ten years or so we’ve had frequent droughts. There’s not enough snowfall or rain to replenish our groundwater supply. Such is the world we made, and now we’d best adapt.

As per my other comment you probably already are. With the exception of costal communities nearly all wastewater is recycled.

In countries with poor wastewater standards this leads to massive river pollution. You don’t know about it because Sweden has strong wastewater regulations.

fkn ,

The vast, vast, vast majority of Americans drink recycled wastewater today. The wastewater treatment plants dump their effluent into the river upstream from where the drinking water is sourced.

By doing this, legally the drinking water source is the river and the idiots who don’t understand how water treatment get to drink their own purified urine without being told they are.

The problem is that it would be significantly more efficient to skip the step of putting it into the river, since American (and most other developed nations) wastewater effluent is usually significantly cleaner than the river it is being discharged into.

HobbitFoot ,

Yeah, but there are cases where wastewater goes directly to treatment plants.

fkn ,

Yes, but my point still stands. Most Americans are drinking recycled wastewater.

Water cycle here, water cycle there. So long as it gets the job done, doesn’t wreck the environment and doesn’t cost an arm and a leg, I’m fine with it.

So long as they name one of their beers unironically “piss” or something of that sort, anyway.

We already have that here!

I also used to be heavily critical of NASA, but as it turns out, their innovations for space travel have had some nice unintended side effects for life here on the 3rd rock from the sun.

Infinitenonblondes ,

Coors has been doing this for years.

Squizzy ,

I drank this for a weekend recently and it had so much water in it I had no hangover. Would recommend to be honest

brainfreeze ,

It’s like the old Monty Python joke. American beer is like making love in a canoe… It’s fucking close to water.

bionicjoey ,

Coors never consulted with NASA though. They developed their own proprietary process which uses far fewer steps.

brainfreeze ,

I hope they call it Pooh Beer

Xi Jinpeeng?

Jinpeeing?

PrinzMegahertz ,

I hope they purify it in the waters of lake Minnetonka
