Ideal Bite recently sampled a whole bunch or organic beer and chose their favorites.
The Benefits:
Eco-friendliness in a bottle. These microbreweries have made a commitment to sustainable agriculture; and organic farming reduces topsoil erosion – modern farming has wiped out 1/3 of America’s fertile topsoil already.
Healthier vocal cords. An FDA study found that 21% of wheat [...]

Beer-a-Day #144
My sister-in-law and niece are visiting over the holiday weekend, so we went down to D.C. to take in the sights.
We had a very pleasant lunch at Capitol City’s downtown location. Their current seasonal offering is an organic saison. I’ve been getting into saisons lately, after having never had them at all.
The pineapple in [...]
Lakefront Brewery Organic E.S.B.
So, after enjoying the five Lakefront Cherry Lagers that strangely found themselves in the six-pack basket of Lakefront Organic E.S.B. I bought, I decided I should try what I’d actually set out to buy.
They say:
One of the few beers brewed in the world using 100% certified organic ingredients. A classic British style Extra Special Bitter [...]

Wolaver’s Pale Ale
Wolaver’s, the Certified Organic brand from Otter Creek Brewing, has been brewing organic beers for ten years now. Organic beer has been getting a lot of attention lately, in no small part due to Anheuser-Busch getting into the game last year with their Wild Hop Lager and Stone Mill Pale Ale offerings.

Al asks for some “greener” beer tips in regard to organic beers. Well, I have one… don’t drink Wild Hop Lager from Green Valley Brewing.
Why…? It is awful.
Why is it awful…? Because once again a megabrewery is trying to make a product that looks like a craft brew, yet they are pouring their money into [...]
Ideal Bite: Drink organic beer
Ideal Bite bills themselves as a “Sassier Shade of Green”. They offer daily tips on ways to live a more “green” life. No, this isn’t living in a commune, making your own clothes out of hemp, and eating nothing but granola (although you could if you want). Rather, they’re trying to reach the rest of [...]
