Ewwwww...... etc. There is an accompanying video, but in the interest of good - uh - taste, I will not link to it. The idea is disgusting enough.


"Aussie beer brewed using algae to help cut emissions

"Bubbling away out the back of Australia's Young Henrys brewery, are two green bioreactors filled with trillions of micro-algae. This is the secret to reducing their carbon footprint. Libby Hogan reports."
 
Open minds, there will be a lot of things we need to consider for the future and algae is the least of our problems, might even be a key to many difficulties over the next century. When faecal matter is re sequenced into a steak as the Japanese have already done, what is the problem with algae? Part of the way to fuel after all.
 
I know this thread is a couple of years old, but the topic of Aussie beer brewed with algae is still interesting. I understand that it might have seemed a bit gross at first, but sometimes innovation takes us down unexpected paths. The idea of using algae to help cut emissions and reduce the carbon footprint of breweries is actually quite fascinating. It shows how companies are exploring unique ways to be more environmentally friendly. By the way, if you're into trying out different drinks, have you ever checked out https://www.wineonlinestore.co.uk/? They've got a fantastic selection of wines to suit every taste. Give it a go, mate!

Glad that you've bumped this topic Andrew.

It is astounding what makes some people squeamish. How could a brewery process with oxygen-production as a byproduct while reducing carbon dioxide output be anything but positive?

Ditto for algae-dosing cows. Adding beneficial amounts of macroalgae to dairy cattle fodder makes particular sense in temperate coastal areas.
