Here Comes the Eco-Friendly Brew: Cheers to Sewage Beer at COP29!

Here Comes the Eco-Friendly Brew: Cheers to Sewage Beer at COP29! [SWOP NEWS]

Sipping on Sustainability: Beer from Sewage Water debuts at COP29:

How about a beer that contributes to saving our planet? Singapore delegation at COP29 climate summit in Baku, Azerbaijan recently introduced an interesting 'hoppy pilsner', NEWBrew, made from recycled toilet water. This move is aimed at promoting recycling solutions and normalizing Singapore's water reclamation efforts.

Quirky Alcoholic Innovation at Global Platform:

The beverage stands at the climate summit offer much more than just refreshments. Among the complimentary coffee from the Australian delegation and the strong tea from the Azerbaijani pavilion, the Singaporeans grabbed eyes and likely taste buds with their eco-friendly beer. The delegates and observers at the summit held at a soccer stadium in Baku did not seem to mind the unique source of the beer. In fact, its recycling credentials may have added to its appeal among the environmentally conscious attendees.

When Beer Cans Tell a Story:

NEWBrew is a part of a collaboration between Singaporean firm, Brewerkz and Singapore's national water agency. This project is designed to expand and normalize the country's water revitalization efforts. The pastel cans adorned with artful designs of solar panels, rain clouds, and cityscapes make a subtle yet powerful statement about this initiative. First-time drinkers might be surprised, but according to Samantha Thian, one of the leaders of Singapore’s youth delegation in Baku, they usually come back the next day for another beer.
