Beer is a pretty simple drink. It only takes three components: hops, yeast and barley malt. And, of course, water. But how be, if the drought is already on the threshold, and you really want beer?





The Guardian reports that the solution to this issue is very Californian brewers were creative and rational. Employees Devil's Canyon together with Epic Cleantec employees, engaged in water purification, produced foam based on wastewater.



A product that belongs to the Kölsch style and has bitter taste and bright aroma of hops, called Epic One Water Brew. And the basis for cooking was the liquid that passed through system for collecting, purifying and reusing water for domestic needs that Epic Cleantec installed in a 40-story residential building in San Francisco. That is, the basis of beer is wastewater, which is the result of mixing water from sinks, showers and washing machines.

The author of the article noted that he tried a novelty. Appreciated freshness and complete absence of aftertaste of shower gel or means for washing dishes:

But what will the sewage beer actually be? giant apartment building? To figure it out I tried four packs of OneWater Brew. It was pleasant, fresh and suitable for drink. It was not noticeable that it was from the shower or laundry.



Representatives of Epic Cleantec said what to do their "epic" beer is very simple. And if the authorities that control the sale of water will enter into a dialogue, then the production of foam based on wastewater can be will put on stream.

In the meantime, Epic OneWater Brew is in the status demo product and is not intended for sale because manufacturers are limited by the rules that apply to recycled drinking water.



In general, give reuse! Would you dare to try this drink?
