Italy:

Geothermal Beer Added to EGP’s Green Menu (News Release)

Following the basil, cheese and salami products made using the geothermal heat from Enel Green Power plants, a new entry has made it onto Tuscany’s green menu: ‘beer made thanks to the steam produced from Enel Green Power’s geothermal energy generation’, as written on the label of the new brews created by Vapori di Birra, a company based in Sasso Pisano near Castelnuovo Val Di Cecina.

The three beers – Magma, Geyser and Sulfurea – are made thanks to a fermentation process that uses the high temperatures provided by geothermal production process. Beer lovers can find the amber double malt, 100 percent barley malt pale ale and wheat Weiss beer in local supermarkets and restaurants and at the pub next to the ‘geothermal’ brewery.

The beer will be presented at the Expo Milano 2015, the Universal Food Exhibition that Italy will host from May 1 to October 31, 2015.
