Drink B&J's, Save the Planet!!!

Want to go Green?

Think about this, to get a pint of your favorite Ale, let’s say a certain beer out of Chico, California, how does it get to, lets say, Corpus Christi?  Trucks!  The distance from Chico to Corpus Christi is 1,964 miles, let’s call it 2000 miles.  The average 18 Wheeler with a full load, in this case BEER, gets around 5-7 miles per gallon of gas.  It takes 400 gallons of gas to get your pint filled!  By demanding that your favorite beer be served at your local bar means that 400 gallon carbon foot print belongs to you!   That is just one trip; another truck is already on the road.  On average personal vehicles are driven 12,000 miles a year, depending on your vehicle, adding just one beer run from Chico to Corpus doubles the fuel you would have used the entire year!!! 

Now you may have figured out that I am referring to Sierra Nevada Brewing Company. I am simply using their location as an example, Sierra Nevada is one of the greenest production facilities in the United States.  They just recently announced that they are opening a new brewery on the east coast to combat the "truck issue".   Check out their sustainability report:  http://www.sierranevada.com/environment/solar.html

So, with all the talk and effort to go green, you don’t need to go buy a hybrid, just buy local and especially Drink Local.

This St. Patty’s Day don’t drink cheap green beer that is actually harming our environment as well as your dignity, come to B&J’s Pizza and drink a delicious sustainable "green" beer.

Long story short:  Drink B&J's Save the Planet!!!

Cheers,
