How green is your beer?
Greenopia.com, a Web site that provides directories of environmental companies, recently released a list of some of the greenest and least greenest breweries in the world. The winner: No surprise that New Belgium Brewing Co. out of Fort Collins, Colo., would take the cake. The Thirsty Beagle has written about them before; they provide bicycles to employees and use organic products in the brewing process. Some of the losers, according to Greenopia: Molson-Coors, Guinness, Heineken and Sam Adams. You can read a report on the list here. And below are the standings, with a 4 indicating the top environmental score:
-New Belgium – 4

-Butte Creek – 2
-Sierra Nevada – 2
-Anheuser-Busch – 1
