Powdered Beer To Go. Just Add Water

Hiker? Camper? You might want to take a look at this one.  A beer powder that you add water (and bubbles to) and boom beer on the go.  Alaska-based company Pat’s Backcountry Beverages have a way to make beer really portable. You very literally just “add water”. It’s not dehydrated beer. Pat’s says its a new process that creates a waterless beer that has flavor, aroma and alcohol of a microbrew. You mix the concentrate with water, add bubbles with the carbonator bottle, and boom. Beer on the go.

Unlike other concentrate processes, this is not just about making the beer and then “removing” the water afterwards (which is extremely energy inefficient). Instead, our process (patent pending) allows us to start with almost no water, and carefully control the environment of the fermentation. The result… concentrated beer with all the same great taste you’re used to in a premium micro brew. All you do is add water, carbonate (check out our carbonator), and enjoy.

The beer options should be available by September, 2012. [PatsBackcountry]

Jim Koch: America Is Envy Of World Brewers

Boston Beer founder Jim Koch “CBS   America is the envy of world brewers.” We tend to agree with him. You see a lot of his passion for a drink that has been around for 12,000 years. “It’s been with us for 12,000 years. It’s been part of our civilization since people settled down into villages. And for many years in the U.S., it’s become this kind of mass-marketed, mass-produced product, and it lost the dignity and nobility and respect that beer deserves, and I’m trying to bring back flavorful beer that will earn that respect.”

28 years later, Koch produces 2 Million barrels a year.
