Finally, there's a byproduct of beer that doesn't involve throwing up, embarrassing behavior or splitting headaches the next morning. Coors Brewing Company is making fuel-grade ethanol from the byproducts of beer production, and will soon double the 1.5 million gallons/year that's currently possible. That's a small drop in the bucket compared to current fuel demands, but it sure beats throwing away the material. As Coors says about their capabilities, "We've always produced low-grade ethanol, so this was a logical step." I think Coors calls their low-grade ethanol "Coors Light."
I will make every effort to do my part in this important conservation effort.
