from the water?-like-out-the-toilet? dept.

Since water is a key ingredient in beer, it being mostly water, polluted water threatens beer quality.

Thursday a group of 59 craft breweries sent a letter to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers opposing the agencies' "Dirty Water Rule" proposal to slash clean water protections for waterways around the country.

These brewers, who are partners in NRDC's Brewers for Clean Water campaign, are standing up for safeguards that protect the sources of clean water on which their businesses depend.

    The EPA rules on wetlands are pretty abusive and some of the worst regulation the US has ever imposed. I think it's sad that it's taken Trump to reverse some of this stuff.

    Look, everybody!
