A California company created beer from a San Francisco residential building’s wastewater.
Epic Cleantec, a San Francisco-based water treatment company, teamed with Devil’s Canyon Brewing Co. to create Epic OneWater Brew, a Kölsch-style ale made using recycled water from showers, sinks and washing machines in Fifteen Fifty, a 40-story luxury apartment building.
The beer is not currently for sale due to regulations banning recycled wastewater from being used in commercial beverages. However, the company is now in talks with other breweries around the world.
