Small Brewery Makes Marine Safe Six-Pack Rings – Brilliant

Here in Maine we have access to one of the most beautiful oceans in the world, more natural coastline than almost anywhere else and well, we drink on heck of a lot of beer. This is why after years of hearing how many six-pack rings end up in our oceans and how many of our ocean living creatures pay the price for our compulsion I am delighted to see that someone has finally come up with a real viable solution.

Saltwater Brewery, a small craft beer brand in Florida whose primary target are surfers fishermen and people who love the sea, decided to tackle the issue head on and make a statement for the whole beer industry to follow. What they did was ideated, designed, prototyped and manufactured Edible Six Pack Rings. A six-pack packaging design that instead of killing animals, feeds them.

They make the rings using the beer making leftovers! Love it! I truly hope that beer soda and anything packaged that way will soon use the same.  Feel free to forward this to your local Coke, Pepsi and Budweiser reps:)
