standing stone brewing co, ashland oregon
Brew pubs can be great places to gather with friends, as well as sample unique local beers--with a dash of local culture. A number of these colorful establishments are also going green, by investing in alternative energy, using local and organic ingredients, and other measures.
For example, Standing Stone Brewing Co. in downtown Ashland, Oregon has solar panels on its roof. The pub uses biofuels and compostable utensils, and it even runs a composting program. Standing Stone is packed with energy- and water-saving technologies, from appliances to lighting. Nontoxic cleaning products are used, and ingredients are sourced from local and organic suppliers. Standing Stone ales are made at the historic pub, in ten-barrel batches using over 80% organic malts. Check out the oatmeal stout or the hefeweizen.
