No, no, the “BM” stands for “brew master.”

For the record, all of the earth’s water has been getting recycled for many millions of years. It’s all just processed sewage.

Do you really want to risk a cock up where possible contaminated water is mixed and fermented?

. . . has asked home brewers to make great-tasting beer from hops, barley, yeast and the key, not-so-secret ingredient: treated sewer water.And every brewer in New Jersey, because that's their only source of water. Sadly this includes our one-time iconic hometown brew Rolling Rock which is now brewed in New Jersey as well.

Brooklyn Brown Ale made with all the flavor of the East River.
Seriously, if you distill the water it doesn't matter what the source is, it ends up as just water.

I know a guy who grew up in Latrobe, PA.
The day Rolling Rock moved to Jersey he actually cried.

Last Pirates game I attended at PNC Park (August of last year), they were still hawking it. So there are a lot of people in this area who still have no idea. What has it been? Nine years now?
