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 products it sampled contained pesticide residue. We prefer the less than 5% offered by organic bottles of beer.
• Savings that repeat themselves. Most organic brews compare in price to regular microbrews (about $9/6-pack). And if more of us buy organic, it will help drive prices down.

Some of the organic beer we’ve had we’ve found pretty tasty and I like the idea of more sustainable brewing.
