Aeropuerto Internacional de San Diego<\/a> (SAN) and The East Village Brewing Co<\/a>. celebrated the release of two beers made with purified condensate collected through the airport\u2019s water stewardship program. Hoppy Travels IPA is a West Coast IPA with flavors of grapefruit and guava and Pre-Flight Pils is a German-style pilsner with bready and lemon zest flavors. The beers are currently on tap at The East Village Brewing Co. and will be available at San Diego International Airport\u2019s Terminal 2 in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

The water used in the beers is the condensate that dripped from the bottom of air conditioning units attached to jet bridges at SAN. The captured condensate was then purified using reverse osmosis and ozone disinfection and transported to The East Village Brewing Co. for its use. The condensate water has a pure water profile with little mineral content, making the reclaimed water an ideal base for brewers. In addition to making beer, the water is used to clean equipment and vehicles at SAN as well as in the cooling towers that control the temperature in the terminals.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe first partnered with the brewers of The East Village Brewing Co. in 2019 when they brewed a beer called SAN Test Pilot using the condensate while working at another local brewery,\u201d said Kimberly Becker, San Diego County Regional Airport Authority president and CEO.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe beer was very successful, selling out almost immediately, and since then we\u2019ve been interested in collaborating again. The East Village Brewing Co.\u2019s focus on sustainability aligns with our efforts at the airport and we are happy to have the opportunity to showcase this reclaimed water innovatively with their help. Cheers to another successful collaboration,\u201d\u00a0Becker said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWholesome ingredients, sustainability, and community are the core tenets of our brewery,\u201d said Aaron Justus, The East County Brewing Co. owner and brewer. \u201cThis collaboration checks all three boxes. It\u2019s great to partner again with the airport, a pillar within our community filled with passionate and fun people. The condensate water is superbly pure and ideal for brewing. Plus, it\u2019s no secret that California is in the midst of a long-term drought, so water reclamation is a creative way to reduce our water footprint here in San Diego.\u201d<\/p>\n

The East Village Brewing Co. has an emphasis on sustainability, ensuring its operations, brewing practices, and final products limit the impact on the environment. Some examples include sourcing hops and malt ingredients from certified Global GAP and Salmon Safe farms, providing their spent grain to a local farm for cow and pig feed, and sourcing all raw materials from companies located on the West Coast of the U.S.<\/p>\n

In addition, all water that runs through the heat exchanger is reclaimed and used for cleaning and brewing, lights are low energy LED and have either timers or motion sensors, cleaners, and hand soap for the tasting room and bathrooms are earth friendly. The brewery is paperless and does not use shrink wrap or other single-use plastics.<\/p>\n
