A blush of green is spreading across that pint glass in your hand. If you haven't noticed it, you soon will. That's because beer is going organic.
Domestic sales of organic food and drink grew from $1 billion in 1990 to $14 billion in 2006, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Organic beer still represents less than 1 percent of U.S. beer sales, but those sales doubled to $19 million between 2003 and 2005 (the last year with available figures), according to the Organic Trade Association. In 2005, organic beer ranked with coffee as the fastest-growing organic beverage.
