A Southern California brewery has successfully tested a beer using treated sewage water.
Stone Brewing, a large craft brewing operation headquartered in Escondido, presented its Full Circle Pale Ale to curious customers at an event Thursday in San Diego.
The new ale is made using recycled, treated sewage water and is part of San Diego's plan, 'Pure Water San Diego,' to get a third of its water from recycled sources by 2021.
And the verdict for the brew, which some have dubbed 'toilet to tap,' seemed to be quite positive, SF Gate reported.

Yes, tested municipal tap water is pure & safe to drink and is more regulated than Perrier. Got it.
But when I was stationed in Germany and went on Volksmarsch, the locals were appalled when I asked for a drink of `Leitungswasser’ (tap water). They gave me bottled water & said don’t worry about paying for it.
Is tap water any purer than in Germany?
I only drink water made from hydrogen that has been harvested from giant interstellar molecular clouds and oxygen harvested from lifeless gas giants.
Everyone on FR has heard of “Panther Whizz”, Hillary’s favorite brew.
I was born and raised in L.A. County. We left in ‘81 — beat the rush.
I have no idea the condition of tap water in Germany at the time you were stationed there. I know that tap water in USA, AUS, Canada, and UK is generally safe to drink. I even drank the “tap water” in the Canadian “First Nation” village ... even after I found out where it came from. No problems.
They didn’t need to “treat” the water, beer is piss before and after.....
(jk jk)
From Sh!t house to Ale House...
Since their beers are like cr@p anyway.

Time for Stone to go out of business.
They can no longer be trusted.

Hate to burst your empty bubble, but you have zero understanding of how little treatment sewage receives.
Water from the sky is the only kind that goes down my throat.
All of the water that reaches So. Cal is essentially poorly treated sewage from the Sacramento Valley sewers.

>> “and in just about every city, town, village, and unincorporated crossroads in America, your tap water is clean, clear, and utterly safe to drink.” <<
That once was mostly true, but it is a total lie now.
No tap water is safe to drink today.

ROFL!!!
Beer is only rented anyway
And just think when the manager of the water purification plant tokes a few too many and screws up the water ... cholera is such a fun disease!
They should at least take the fluorosilicic acid out of the drinking water supply. Tough to get rid of it before you drink and it’s tough to get rid of it after you drink it. I use a modified pressure cooker to distill it out for the drinking water. Don’t know how much gets absorbed during showers and bathing.
