Brewery launches beer made with carbon captured from air

Representational Image

A craft brewery has launched beer carbonated with carbon dioxide captured directly from the air, marking a shift in how a critical industrial input can be sourced.

The Direct Air Capture (DAC) system sits inside Almanac's brewery in Alameda, California. It pulls CO2 from ambient air and refines it to beverage-grade quality before feeding it into the brewing process.

The launch follows a turbulent period for US manufacturers. A CO2 shortage in 2022 had disrupted operations and raised costs across food and beverage sectors, with breweries among the hardest hit.
