ORGANIC BEER CREATES MORE CO2--Copenhagen Post

If your MLB team has been commandeered into the alleged "green" theme perhaps featuring "organic beer," this is bad news:

• "Organic beer production emits substantially more greenhouse gases than ordinary beer, according to a Copenhagen University thesis.

Jakob Majcher, author of the thesis, studied the total carbon dioxide emissions in connection with the brewing of organic and conventional lagers.

• He concluded that organic beer production emitted 12 percent more gasses than traditional pilsners."
