Default Re: Organic Beer

I doubt there are enough organic growers to supply the beer market. Growing crops like barley to certifiable organic standards is very difficult because of overspray from neighbours, etc. There is also presently a world-wide hops shortage, and beggars can't be choosers, so insisting on organic hops in quantities large enough for a mega-brewery is kind of a long shot.
