Well, GreenGrog split up for the holidays to tour two breweries — I hit New Belgium Brewing in Fort Collins, Colo. and Kenan went to Pisgah Brewing in Black Mountain, N.C. We’ll incorporate what we learned into neato-keen Web presentations later, but I just want to say that my visit to New Belgium left me pretty blown away by the number of things that breweries can do to be more sustainable, as well as by the impression I got from Bryan Simpson, my tour guide, that a lot of breweries are doing pretty well.

I was minding my own business today, reading an article about sustainable lunar living, and I actually took a second to think, hey, some of this sounds like what New Belgium might do. Or Sierra Nevada. Or maybe a bunch of other breweries.

This blog has been a wonderful learning tool for us, so if you know of breweries out there with impressive sustainable efforts (or, heck, deplorable sustainable efforts), do let us know in the comments. Thanks and happy holidays!
